You are doing so well with this!

Nice work Tracy. Did the first 6 rows of page 6 go quickly? If you don't get bored with white, I'm thinking you will probably whip right through all of page 6 (am I trying to convince myself here?

)

It only took about half an hour. It's actually not the big single colour areas that I struggle with its the small 'grey' lines that are full of confetti that I dread - it took me a couple of hours to get through the 100 stitches I had left on P5 because of the colour changes!

Every time I see this, I want it more and more! Great progress!

I added another 575 stitches of 3865 (white) today making it just under 1900 white stitches in total over 4 days. I've now stitched 65% of the page (all white) and have still got 20 rows (each ranging from 14-30 stitches long) to reach the bottom of the page!

Dude.. you and Vanessa should have a speedy needle contest.

Glad it's coming together for you and the migraine didn't slow you down. Can't wait to see the full pic of how far along you are!

Did you enjoy Mary Poppins? I saw it on Broadway and it was a fun time.

This is so cool! And quite unique for a fractal. Glad you're enjoying it.

ETA: I love how you keep track of stitches and percentages.

Tracy - great job getting through all that white. Knowing you were plugging through the same area certainly helped me along. Soon you will be on to the next 'row' of pages.

I have now finished the first row! I got the 275 confetti stitches done on Monday night which I am very happy about. I am now planning on putting this aside for a little while for a break (I intend to rotate this with my first BAP HAED "Computer Catastrophes", doing a row of pages on each at a time) and there are a couple of small projects I want to do which will fill in the time before the next page of the HAED SAL comes out in April.

Beautiful update. I love watching this one grow. Its hard to believe there are that many shades between white and black, but I know there are. You are doing a great job.
