Re: Susan's HOED!
Susan, you have my empathy after frogging mine for hours as well, but you feel so much better once it's done, knowing that you don't have to worry over it after.
Well done and I'm sure you'll be happier with the piece now it's out.

Re: Susan's HOED!
This is a gorgeous piece and you're making great progress - even though it's just background the shading is lovely. Sorry you had to - he's such a pain, isn't he?

Re: Susan's HOED!
You must be very pleased with yourself, Susan! That was frustrating and needed a lot of patience!

Re: Susan's HOED!
Susan I don't blame you for going back to fix it! I am so obsessive compulsive about these things too that I would have done the same. You are doing amazing though! I've got a HAED design and can't quite bring myself to do it just yet. You are brave! Keep it up!

Re: Susan's HOED!
Well done you for making the effort to frog out the wrong colour blue. A HAED design is such an investment of your time and effort I imagine you want it to be as good as you can do, even if that means spending an hour or so righting an error. You'll have always seen that mistake for ever afterwards, even if no one else could see it!

Re: Susan's HOED!
I shall enjoy watching you progress with this even more now I'll be starting my own HAED in a couple of months (see "Oh my word, look what I'm getting for Christmas"). Your design is lovely and you've got loads done. Much as I'm looking forward to getting mine, I'm intimidated by the size of it already! 56 pages of chart!!

Re: Susan's HOED!
Sorry about Mr but your progress is amazing even when you see it against the whole piece of fabric. Can't wait to see more progress.
Re: Susan's HOED!
Can't believe it, but after 5 months to finish the first page, I've finished the second in three weeks!!!
You can't see it properly on the photo at all, but all the white bits are sparkly as it uses white thread interspersed with Kreinik #4 metallic.

Re: Susan's HOED!
This is coming along brilliantly, and I'm sure the sparkly bits will show up well in the light. I really admire all you who can stick rigidly to doing neat 10x10 blocks, I tend to wander all over erratically with my stitches lol.
Have some from me

Beautiful colours and I wish we could see the sparkly bits, they must make it look quite fairytaley!
