Re: Just confessed!!!!
That so cheered me up, thanks for that! He doesn't need to worry this year anyway but do enjoy your chart, I think folk have bought this as a challenge and have to say I have been thinking of that too? Good luck, would love to see your DH's face when he realises it is nearly finished?

Re: Just confessed!!!!
I know the feeling. I am yet to complete a project for myself and DH is already worrying about where I am going to hang stuff. I wouldn't mind but we have very few pictures on the walls anyway AND its not like I will be churning them out at a rate of once a week.
Enjoy your chart and when the time comes hang it with pride

If you're running out of wall space you could hang it on the ceiling. Fitting don't you think?

Re: Just confessed!!!!
I don't blame you it is a very tempting project. I would be very tempted to join in too but I have 2 HAED's on the go already.

Re: Just confessed!!!!
22 ct Hardanger is becoming one of my favorite fabrics to stitch on. I am doing the SAL on it 1 over 1 and getting really good coverage. I also started one of skitzzzzz's designs (will start a thread on that one today) doing 2 over 1 which I like for it but I think because there is space between the designs and not the total stitching that a HAED design requires. I am planning on trying 3 over 1 tent stitch on it for my HAED Tabbies.
I will be very interested in what you think when you do your test stitching. And I would think if you start before April 1 they will still let you in on the SAL over on the BB. I would have a very hard time waiting myself once I got all the supplies.

Re: Just confessed!!!!
Thanks Carole, I've thrown a few quick stitches into it and am preferring 1over1 I think, looks a lot neater and is easier stitching!!
