I've just found a 40" scroll frame that I'd forgotten I had.

It means I can now start a rather substantial new HAED that I recently fell in love with and downloaded but was going to wait to start until I'd finished Cat in a Window to free up that scroll frame. Of course, I've already bought the fabric and threads for the new one (because I couldn't wait) and they're just so pretty, and I keep daydreaming about the new pattern

and life's too short to put things off. I know you understand.

ETA: I think I need to start a rotation.

Don't you just love it when you find something useful like that

? Enjoy the rotation!

Brilliant Lizzie! I'm the same I have my 14" embroidery hoop currently housing a Border Collie cross stitch which I need to do but I'm itching to start another Wrendale Designs called 'Curious Hen' but I need that hoop for it! Oh well the quicker I stitch the collie the quicker I can start the other one!

Enjoy!

How wonderful for you! Do we get to know what the new start will be? Or do we need to be in suspense?

I'm trying to reduce my pile of half finished stuff.
But good luck rotating

Re: Looks like I'll be starting another one!

Silly me. I was so excited about finding the scroll frame that I forgot to show you the new pattern.

Here it is:

Please forgive the weird photo - I only have it in PDF, so took a pic of it on the screen. It didn't quite work.

Love you new HAED such pretty bright colours. How did they do such fine stitching with such poor lighting - amazing.

Ahh
Stitcher's Retreat.

I downloaded that one too. 'Tis very nice, but I rather doubt I'll ever get to start mine. Keeping it in my stock of electronic stash for the event of me suddenly getting 2 or 3 orders of magnitude quicker at stitching.
OK, it's Sable (Stash beyond life expectancy), but I like it too.

Regards,

Richard.
