I started Envy on Monday, and I'm lovin stitching on her, and decided to make her my focus piece. I dont think I'm one of those people who can stitch more than one HAED at a time, so I chose my most favourite design to stitch and Envy is it!

This is how she'll look complete:



And this is where I'm at:



This is page one, nearly done the first half of it. I'm really enjoying stitching the greens, I really hope I can stick at her!

good thing you enjoy green... and i think you are wise sticking to a single HAED, although others seem to manage multiples (how??). Anyway, looking excellent.

Great start and a gorgeous design

Great start and a lovely picture I think this is probably my favourite from the 7 deadly sins series - like you, I like green too!

Ooooh I really want to do this design but I had already bought the queen of hearts before I saw this one. I will be really keen to watch your progress on this

I love all that green!!! Great progress so far, can't wait to see this one grow!

This one is my second favourite of the series (after Sloth ) Lovely colours, I've only just noticed the pillars and sky and things behind her!

Great start!

That is a beautiful design, such beautiful greens - and you have made a good start.

she is beautiful. I love the colours too

Thanks so much everyone!

I never really liked green in the past, but the green in this design is fantastic, so it was nice to be stitching a colour palette I wouldnt normally choose. I'm more a pink/purple/red girl myself. But I'm defintely a green convert now lol.

I wish I knew the secret to having more than one HAED on the go, I feel I can't commit to mulitple projects, but maybe when I'm more ahead with this one, it might feel right to start another. We'll see...

It is really great to get lots of encouragement, I certainly need it - she is huge!

We've got quite a few of the seven deadly sons in progress now This one looks fantastic, looking forward to your updates.

This is an amazing design! I'm not a fan of green myself, but this design wouldn't be fantastic without it.

Wow, she's stunning!!! Love the greens in this project and you've made a very good start on her already

That is a beautiful design and I am a bit prejudice as my favorite color is green.

You made a wonderful start and I can't wait for more!!!!

i love this design its gorgeous i will definately be adding this one to my stash at some point i have just traded vannesa a chart to get wrath and im buying vanity from her too i cant wait to start them the only one in this set i dont like is gluttony but envy will be gorgeous well done so far keep going it will be great when you finish i love the snake on this too

I have all the seven deadly sin charts, and the only one I'm not hot on is Gluttony too. Makes me wonder if it is possible to stitch all 7, can you all imagine what a challenge that would be!

If I ever get this finished, I would really love to stitch Lust next, love her dress.

Well I've nearly finished the first half of page 1, I'm really enjoying stitching her so far

Little update:

That is a very pretty design! Looking forward to your progress pictures!
