Hope you like it and I look forward to meeting you all

This is such a gorgeous chart and you are making awesome progress - the advantage of tent stitch! Welcome to the forum we are a really friendly bunch - hope you will continue to update us with your progress - we love pictures!

Hi and welcome from Brisbane in Australia.

What an awesome chart that one is and you are making wonderful progress on it. You will find plenty of company here stitching HAED's - especially after the recent sale.

and "no I don't do them" My loves are Chatelaines and Joan Elliott as well as smaller ones for gifts/cards etc.
Looking forward to more updates on this lovely one.

Wow that is gorgeous. I am very tempted to try a mini myself. Yours is looking great

Welcome to the Forum your mini is looking lovely and the colours are gorgeous.

I have to ask now as I've seen a couple of people using these ... what exactly is the thing you have around your frame (with the roses on)? It looks like a shower cap (although I realise it obviously isn't) or a steering wheel cover!!! But it looks a great idea to keep the fabric clean from hand marks.

What are they called????

Hello and welcome to the forum from South Carolina. Your mini is beautiful and you are making great progress. I did a mini in tent stitch and it took 3 mts to complete. You are stitching so well and so quickly you will be done very soon. Tenting really speeds things up. We have several members who tent a lot and make amazing progress. I hope you will stick around and keep us updated on your progress.
This is a great forum.

welcome from southern california

your work is really beautiful.

pinguu, the covers are called "qsnap covers" and you can get them wherever qsnaps are sold ( did that sound like a commercial???)

I love love love this design and you have made tremendous progress already. I have the regular chart, worked on it for about a month (before rotating), and with 3 pages complete, no where near what you have showing already.

Keep up the great work and I look forward to more updates!
