I can stitch on my porch, or in the car with the windows open, but unless it
is completely windless, I can't just stitch out side.

Does any one here stitch outside?

I used to stitch in the car way back when, but always with the windows
closed.

Outdoors here is impossible. It's either too sunny, too humid or pouring
rain.

Absolutely, at the cottage. The light is fantastic. I have two places.
On the deck, with a small round table and an umbrella over the top. And
in my boat. The boat is sheer luxury. It is a "deck" boat; basically a
pontoon boat on a hull. It has a comfortable chair for the driver, and a
table is in just the right place. There is a bimini for shade. Tied up at
the dock, there is often a very gentle rocking motion from the water.
There is a radio, CD player, and it is just ba wonderful place to stitch,
once the weather gets warmer, and the flies and mosquitoes disappear.

Not me. As a child, maybe 5/6 at a convent school, we stitched
outside one day. Maybe I was distracted but somehow I caught a stitch
through to my skirt. I was beaten for it with the bamboo stick by the
nun, so I am now averse to stitching outside ! Pavlovs dog syndrome.

That happens a lot. The catching stitches to clothes. Hopefully the other
part doesn't any more.
