I think it's time to share with you my first HAED wip!. It is Foxglove Ball by Aimee Stewart. I *planned* to start it on the first day of 2016 as I thought I should start something new and big in the beginning of a new year. But I did not like the 25ct DMC evenweave I bought so I ordered another piece of fabric. I started this on on January 22, 2016. After working on it for 1 month and still have not finished one page I felt kind of bored so I put it away for 2 months.......and last week I picked it up again after seeing all other people sharing their wips here. This one is being worked on 28ct Jobelan with 1 over 1 DMC floss. It has a total of 625x833 = 520625 stitches.
January 22, 2016:
Big start!
February 1, 2016:
Parking and cross country....I was confused and almost lost....
April 10, 2016:
5600 stitches done! That is 1% of the total stitches! Filling in the gaps/holes after cross country was painful but I managed it .
I hope I can finish page 1 by the end of April. I can't wait to start page 2 which seems a lot more fun to do!
Great progress! Pieces with a lot of confetti take longer but it is so worth the effort for the beautiful detail you get. I love the colors of this one and am looking forward to your updates!
