HAED - Witches & Crones *Update 20.09.10*

Post by burgundyice »

OK I know I am a crazy person to have started another one... but I got a huge piece of 27ct evenweave for a bargain price and had such fun measuring out how many HAEDs I could fit on it... and then going through my threads and working out which ones I had most of the colours for already...

This one has me all excited at the moment as Autumn and Halloween is one of my favourite times of year, plus my birthday is in October too :wub:

This is Witches & Crones by Jane Wooster-Scott:

Image

I find it really atmospheric & just what a Halloween evening should feel like!

And here is page 1 - minus a bit of 3743 at the bottom right

Image

Hoping that by Halloween it'll really be starting to look like something!

Ooh, another new one, yay! This looks like a really fun design to stitch and as you said, just what Halloween should look like.

Just finished last night - second page! 9% done! I'm working downwards on this one so I get a bit of variation... it's just too interesting to just work across and do all that sky!

I think there's something starting to appear in the bottom right hand corner... :)

On the next page down I get to the kid dressed as a hotdog :lol:
