Hello from Denver

Hi, everyone! I'm Lisa (obviously! lol).
I have been stitching for about 24 years now and have loved every minutes of it. Nothing like a few minutes of stitching to make the stress of the day go away! I did take a 7 year hiatus from stitching but the moment I picked it back up I couldn't for the life of me remember why I had set it aside!!!
When my boys were little they would snuggle next to me on the couch while I stitched away and when I picked it back up my "baby" came and sat next to me and said "Just like the good ole' days". He was 16 then! Now my boys are off to college and that leaves me plenty of stitching time!
I recently finished Noah's Sub (Stoney Creek). This was my largest project but not the most detailed I have done. It turned out great. Due to time restraints (life) it took me a little over two years to finish. I am now working on Unicorn & The Princess (Stoney Creek). It have been working on this for a little over three weeks and it should be finished this weekend. I have put in extra time on it so that I can hurry to get it done.
Why the rush to finish you ask???? Because I stumbled upon this forum a few months ago and saw everyone rambling on about this HAED thing. Silly me just HAD to goggle it. Bad. Bad. Bad. I really tried to not fall into your silly little obsession but at last I couldn't resist and the very second that I am done with the Unicorn & The Princess I will be starting on this:

The postman is set to deliver my supplies tomorrow or Friday. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! I think I will even do a SAL.
I work from home and have several clients who can hardly wait from one appointment to their next to see what progress has been made on the current project and they are really excited to see Santa take shape!
So for now I am going to say "Thank You" for introducing me to a great project. Later I may say something different! LOL
Wish me luck!
Lisa

Looking forward to seeing your SALs. 
I don't even want to go to the mailbox because I know my goodies are there waiting for me and I won't be able to do anything about it.
