Here is Starry Night with Tardis charted by the amazing Skitzzzzz - I know several of you are stitching this one. Here is my progress after starting on 13 May (it was a Friday so I hope this is not an omen!):

I'm using 18ct magic guide aida, as the design is quite dark I won't need to worry about washing the lines out (I am still a bit scared of washing my cross stitch!).
I hope to start HAED QS Believe next month once I have decided what fabric to use. I may stick to 18ct as I would like it to be a bit bigger. I've ordered a fabric sample pack from Donna at Cross Stitch Heaven to decide what fabric to use for my 3 bigger HAEDs. I can't tell you the amount of threads I have read on here and other forums giving the pros and cons for different fabric and thread combos and tent stitch and full crosses! Decided the best way was to sample all combinations myself!
I expect next month I will have a few Qs about Krenik as I have never used it before and will need to on Believe - if anyone else has stitched this design I would be interested in your views on whether to use the fine braid or just the blending filament (as others have done).
Thanks everyone - you are all inspirational!
