First of all, I hope that you feel much better soon. Sounds like you were hit hard with the flu or a monstrous cold. And with school back in session I'm sure stitching time is at a premium. Update us on your work when you can. We certainly understand, despite loving the pictures. Your Montage is ...

I apologize from the bottom of my heart for not updating.

I haven't been feeling well at all for the past two weeks, my cousin is here from Mexico, and classes have started for the semester. I still have a sore throat and fever blisters, but no more 102 temp! I think I should be able to finally ...

You're doing so well! Happy New Year!

I'm glad to see someone else working on a fractal! By the way your WIP is beautiful!!

You're all so sweet!

Here's a small update.



I am so close to finishing another page! I really hate those tiny spirals, though.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

I have an update!

Since my sleep has been way off to where I have become DaVinci by sleeping 3 hours at a time instead of the whole 8 at once, I haven't done much. Every little step counts, though! I have completed 1/3 of the page. An online friend gifted me a HAED of the Mayan Aztec Montage I will ...

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I took a decent break from everyday life, and now I'm back to push to get the fractal done by the end of January.

Did anyone get stitchy gifts?

One of my favorite game series! That black background must be a pain.

I just noticed you've worked on a fractal. I'm working on a fractal!!! Your choice is beautiful! I have another fractal I'm going to work on eventually.

Just a heads up to everyone, I will be on here on occasion, but not as often between January 10th and the 24th. My cousin will arrive early morning on the 10th, and her time here will leave me exhausted daily since she will most likely be like a kid in a candy store, haha. I will hopefully be ...

I think it might be tricky to get the gridding thread out or are you planning to stitch over it? I use a water erasable marking pen. Fishing line or special threads for gridding are often used by other members. If you are going to try the DMC I would test this idea first on a similar piece of ...

Thanks ladies! I started back on the fractal today, and I'm hating every minute of it because of all of the jumping. grrrr, I hate the small spirals! What is everyone doing this holiday?

I am going to be gridding a project for The Last Judgement. I was told not to use regular DMC thread for it, but ...

Such beautiful work! You're doing a great job!! We are all cheering you on.

Update!! Finally got to taking photos. These Google hangouts I join in make my stitching fly by!

What an interesting and awesome heritage you have Jenster and of course the Mayan Aztec Montage screamed at you - its part of you.
I often feel a similar way with anything Welsh/Celtic - even though I am NZ born my grandmother was born in Wales and I seem to have inherited her love for her home ...

I am posting photos and also making videos on my channel. I also updated my wishlist and added one I really want want want WANT, haha. I think next year will finally be my year to shine and show my determination in finishing something! I will for sure post photos for you all!

Awwww!!! Penguins are my favorite! That project looks so adorable

As I've said in a Facebook group:

Is it normal to get emotional when you find a pattern that really gets to you? Searching throughout the HAED website, I found one that almost made me cry. It's called Mayan Aztec Montage.

My father is Mexican and our ancestors are Aztec. Seeing this really made ...

Hello & welcome. Have not seen this before today but it is a wonderful design & you are doing great. Look forward to next update & also seeing your 2nd project :D

Thank you lavenderbee! You're very sweet :). I will most likely be doing Starry Night and the phoenix in one cycle, and the tulip and ...

Looking great!

I need to ask though - who is your starry night pattern by? I really want to stitch Starry night some day, but so many different companies have charted it, and I cant decide which one I like best!
