After two days (nearly) without pain in my shoulders, and after nearly 3 weeks without stitching, I really had to start this picture!! But I don't think I should stitch too much in the start, 'cause my shoulders are mad at me after 88 stitches...
I have started in the right top corner:
Hopefully, it will look like this beautiful HAED picture when it's finished:

for getting started so well. 88 stitches now is 88 you don't have to do later. This is a magnificent design. I am looking forward to seeing your updates as you stitch it. But take your time so that your shoulder doesn't start hurting again.

Awesome design and great start, all the best for the rest!
Hope the shoulder doesn't give you trouble. After my operation years ago I still get trouble with my right shoulder when I stitch because I always lean forward.

Love this design and 88 stitches is a great start. Hope the shoulder feels better soon so you can do more.

I did around 100 more stitches yesterday, but I regret today But I've bought som gel today, I hope that will take the last of my pain. No more stitching this week!
I know its hard to not stitch, but you need to take care of that shoulder! (that's the Mom in me scolding you for not taking care of yourself properly). I'd probably do the same thing that you are doing though, and suffering the results. Find some very long involved books to take your mind off of it for a while. Get some great movies to watch. I hope you get better soon because this is one great design.
