She is really beautiful, congratulations!

Beautiful finish! I love the framing, it compliments the design perfectly

She's really pretty, great work!

Thank you for the lovely comments!

I really hope my stitchy bug stays this time, even though I have the urge to start another :oops: especially with a 50% sale on.

I really excited to get to the detail, and it stitches up pretty fast with tent stitching, but not sure whether I would do all my ...

Hi everyone. It's been a while since I've been here, and also been a while since I've stitched too. I hadn't stitched for many months and was missing it and so I decided to start stitching a HAED mini in the hopes it would help me get my stitchy bug back.

To be honest I didn't think I was able to ...

This look fantastic! Well done on your progress.

What a beautiful design, and I love your progress. The colours are so pretty in the sky and then you have the vivid wings, just gorgeous.

Beautiful design, I bet there are some lovely DMC colours in this, I look forward to seeing your progress, good luck

The others in the series are much bigger than this so probably not, I think this is my limit on size which is 450x675, and even then it feels like I've taken on a huge task! :wink:

I would like to do either the minis or the QS ones though, but who knows what new releases are around the corner :lol:

My goals are:

To get one third done on Fire Moon (HEAD) only just started it but would like it to take me 3 years or less.

To not buy any stash in 2013, I bought quite a lot on 2012 but didn't do any stitching at all, plus I need to learn to focus on my current project as I get distracted by new ...

I started! I put in my first stitches today, I think I've done roughly 400 stitches so far. Christmas was busy and so I didn't get any time to stitch, but as my husband was back at work today, it gave me the best opportunity to make a start.

So far, it's only brown, black and red and hopefully I ...

Hi ladies. Thank you for the encouragement. I've been in a stitching rut for a while now and it's so good to share my project with you all. I'm hoping to get some stitches done amongst the Christmas mayhem, and I shall share progress soon.

I do so hope it'll be fun to stitch especially as the ...

Hi everyone :-)

I haven't been on here for a good two years and I've really missed being here and I haven't really stitched it that time too which I've really missed also. So I thought I'd return with a new start. I've been dying to get stuck into a Heaven and Earth design and I thought the ...

Thanks everyone :cake:

To be honest, i'm not sure that i stitch fast really, I think I get so enthusiastic about a new start I stitch and stitch for hours in the evenings. I have no kids, at uni and my husband works til 1am so each evening I have lots of time on my hands, so I dont think I'm a ...

A little update for you all:



Bit of a dodgy pic, but u can see the texture in the stitches nicely.

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments, I'm hoping to stitch more of her over xmas, background mostly - eek

So, here she is...

I wanted to get all the block done before I shared, but I was so eager to upload a pic...I'm currently stitching a vivid streak of blue in her hair which will look fab.

I couldnt believe how much detail there was in ...

Hi everyone! So nice to hear from you all :)

And thanks for the great comments, I think I will need encouragement to progress through this huge design ;)

Hehehe I will probably be totally blued out when finished, but the colours are gorgeous and a lovely selection of all different shades.

Yep ...

Hi everyone. I'm currently stitching a HAED design that was released really recently, and when I saw the chart I knew I had to stitch her, I#ve loved the artwork for ages, and it will be fantastic to see it emerge

Her name is Ravene (artwork by Marta Dahlig)

I'm from the UK, and I'm a student and stitch when I'm not knee deep in ...
