Returning Stitcher (lots of pics!)

Hello all! I was a member for a while... a couple years ago. I eventually stopped stitching for a while, quite a while, three years at least. But now I am back with all my stitchyness and returning to the forum. Most of my works are HAED's, so I have been nosing around over on their site for a bit. ...

Re: Headache While Doing Cross Stitch

I was experiencing issues myself. After mentioning to my optometrist she told me to only stitch in day light, or really good lighting. To take breaks, think of it as if you were using a computer (at least if you follow all the warnings out there). Stop for 10 minutes every hour, look at somthing els...

Re: New to HAED

And despite their sign, they do have lots and lots of confetti, it's why they are able to look so amazingly detailed. As for the fabric count, use whatever you feel comfortable with, I've used 18, 22, and 25 ct on some of my various projects. The only thing to remember is the difference in the size ...

Re: Warning for UK users buying from HAED

I've used a CC for half a dozen purchases (at least >.>) only had trouble once, and really if I wasn't such an honest person it would have gone in my favor. A pay lot got cancelled by mistake so they needed all the info again, it was rather annoying, but nothing terrible.

Oh no, temptation!

On my way home from work, and to work, and uhm, pretty much anywhere I go these days, I have to stop at the mall to transfer buses. Well today I went for a little stroll, and what do I spy as I reach the top of the escalators? What looks like a booth selling paintings. Meh, no biggie right? Wrong. T...

Re: HAED

definitely want to make sure you have excellent light before working on that. As for the counting out the stitches, alot of HAEDers will grid, or draw or tack out a 10 x 10 grid on the cloth with contrasting floss, or thread, some use sulky metallics, or, like me, a water soluble fabric pen. It's de...

Water dragon etc

So, for the past five weeks I've been away from home, from my usual computer, most of my stash, 24/7 tv and my furball. Needless to say I've been trying to fill the void while I'm away from home. Thankfully it's just for four months while I'm on a work term. I wasn't sure what I would be able to do ...
