The Encounter update 3.

Hello everybody!

I haven't been able to update my progress for allmost two weeks, because our camera was broken, but I read this blog every day (many times:-) and it keeps me going!

I got trough the Kreinik (yay!) and stitching mountains now.
I’ve been working on this quite a lot over the last few days, mostly mountains, which has a lot more colours in it than it looks on the photo (so far over 20) .
the colours look really lovely I think and find it amazing how those blue and grey colours come together to produce a beautiful piece of artwork.
Mountains are slow to stitch - and I'm starting to understand how big project this is going to be (it doesn't scare me at all, I like to do challenging works).

I have been that kind of person who stitch only one project at time until it's done and then start another one, but after I found HAED - I have found so many designs that i fantasize to do. It is VERY hard not to start another design.. lol.

I wish all of you wery nice (stitching)week!!!!



before now

Isn't great to be stitching along on the sky and then suddenly have something other than sky appear? Your mountains are gorgeous!
