Dragon Knot by Mel

It's been a while since I've posted. But I have been SO very close to finishing a page that I wanted to wait! So, here it is! Six pages completed!

As requested by Sabine ...

here are pics of my finishes :)



QS Girly Gothic (Caron Vinson)

Started 15 August 2006
Finished 7 November 2006

Stitched 1 x 1 full cross on Lavender Bliss 25 count Lugana with DMC floss and Petite Treasure Braid PB10 for the sparkles.



QS Snowflake (Selina Fenech)

Started 17 (or thereabouts) September 2005
Finished 24 May 2007

Stitched 1 x 1 full cross on 25 count hand-dyed evenweave with DMC floss and DMC metallic (the one on the skein) for the sparkles.

Thank you for looking :)

Finally getting my act together!

I joined some time back but life was a little busy. Things are slowly getting back to normal so I'm hoping to get back into my HAED stitching!

A brief little intro - my name is Mel (short for Melissa), I'm an Australian living the expat life in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. I'm married to a wonderful man and we have two great kids (boy, almost 14, and girl, 11). We also have a rather pampered dog called Tikki.

I discovered HAED in 2005 and so started my addiction :)

I went through a bad case of startitis so have many WIPs but gradually managed to curb that urge enough to actually finish two - QS Snowflake and QS Girly Gothic.

At the moment I will be concentrating on my QS Plum Gothic (Vinson) WIP as she is the closest to being finished. This is my current progress.



I am stitching her on 27 count white Linda evenweave with DMC floss. There are no sparkles in this one.
