Go Louise you can do it

This is looking fab - can't wait to see the finished product!!

It would be great if you could finish it by Friday....but then again that's tomorrow 7000 that soon seems unlikely You'll be finished really soon though!

Can't wait !!!

Wow, what an exciting time! Let me sit here on the magic bench and wait.... wait... not to hurry you, no, just take your time... I am waiting...

You ll do it easily.

ohhhh cant wait to see this finished! pictures pictures pictures!

Can´t wait to see the pic of the finished piece!

I'm so excited for you! I know when I finish off a big project I have an almost obssesive need to get it done, so I get way more hours done per day than usual, I once even developed a callus on my index finger from threading the needle

Hope you don't get too sleep deprived and enjoy the last little bit of Queenie.

Thanks all!

Well Queenie is a year old today! Still a few thousand black stitches to do... I'll certainly finish over the weekend - it's exciting to think that at work on Monday I'll be working on a new project!!! -- just not sure if I'll finish it tonight....

It is very exciting! - you know like on your birthday, or Christmas, or looking forward to a holiday or something, you're going about your normal business but in the back of your mind keep remembering there's something special going on

I have 5 photos left in my camera which will be for the HAED reward pictures (photo of the back, photo with signature on a piece of paper next to it etc... I want to make sure they believe it's real!!) then will get them developed as soon as I can after that. Hopefully expect photos next week!

Go Louise It is exciting when your near the end of a large project

Do you have any idea what you want to stitch next?.Another HAED or something small?.

Wow, only 1000 stitches left, so close now! I can't wait for the last picture.

I was also wondering what you plan to stitch next.

I know, I've been a bit secretive with what I'll be working on next..... I'm going to set up a rotation of HAEDs, the two I've made little starts on (in April) are:

Moon Tide, by Rachel Anderson again
Once Was Innocent (Selina Fenech)

And kitted up and the one I'll probably start with is Summoning Old Friends (Carrie Hawks).
I think it'll work out as quite a nice mixture of different colour schemes to work with, after all the red Planning to do a page on each one and then rotate. The question is, do I set up SAL threads for each one, or use the same thread?

It's 7000! At least they're all the same colour!!

Louise

Wow, Queenie is sensational! I'll be cheering you on to the finishing line also. I bet it is so exciting to have nearly finished her - come on those 7000 black stitches

Quite a selection, that should keep you interested! I'd probably set up a separate thread for each of them, it might get confusing otherwise and it is such fun to see a project develop!

Lovely charts Louise Start a sal for each one I think as its easier to keep up with the progress and seems to give us more to looky at
