I took another piccie this morning, but it doesn't seem to look like I've done much since the last one! :oops: Distracted by my writing yesterday so I didn't stitch much for once.

Quick question--I know the haed's are worked typically on 25 ct fabric, but is it linen or some other evenweave?? I'm having a tough time finding much in that count in large enough pieces of fabric. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

Karen, for all my HAEDs I'm using 25 count Zweigart Lugana evenweave. It's a fairly heavy fabric with very even threads, not like linen. I find it beautiful to work with. I buy mine from http://www.sewandso.co.uk" target="_blank and you can buy huge pieces of it - but I see you're in Florida so I'm not sure what companies are available in the US which would stock it. I'm sure some of our other American stitchers will be able to point you in the right direction though.
