I've always known stitching or crafting of any kind was good therapy. Now I'm backed up by news from the recent Beijing Olympic games. How cool is that?
It seems that a number of the Chinese female Olympic athletes are avid cross stitchers. They participate in sports from weight-lifting to diving, to basketball and even judo. So many of the members of the weight lifting team are into stitching that the coach accepts that it is not a waste of time but an integral part of the teams activities.
The reasons for stitching vary and range from it making them feel the best they feel doing anything else to making them feel feminine. It seems that women are basically the same all over the world.
