Here's an update of MOTD,I can't seem to find my Faery Tales or Sunny scans. I'll try to dig thru my computers later today.
I had my gall bladder taken out in an emergency surgery 2 weeks ago and I've spent a good deal of time dopey but I did manage to get a bit done on Faery Tales. I'm trying to work on Sunny this week but it's been a long week already and I find myself being so tired:( I haven't taken any pain medication in days yet still so tired:(
Everyones updates look so great!:) We do some amazing stitching here:)
Happy stitching ladies!

New Start and some progress pics

After some gentle "coaxing" from some other fine HAED stitchers I started Faery Tales by James Christensen(?).I'm stitching it on 28 ct. pale blue 1x1 and I've gotten in about 500-700 stitches-I did put it down for this week to work on QS Dragon Soul for the Fairy Day SAL on the BB. I got a bit done on it-I think I now agree with others that don't like the #4 braid on the face.I'm only using 1 strand of it too and learned from the first side that I do all the stitches around the shiny spots and then go back and fill it in. I found if I did it along the way I would lose a hole here and there because of the thickness of the #4.I also worked on SK MOTD for the final SK SAL,didn't get it finished but got alot done. Valorie(she's 4,my GD)picked Sunny for me to do on the next SK SAL,we're getting excited about that one.Love all the colors in her!
I just got my computer fixed and we lost all of our other stuff,I don't feel like linking to photobucket atm so just these recent updates is what I have.I'm finishing up some on QS Dragon Soul as I'm itching to get back to Faery Tales....But I really need to work on a better rotation-I stll need to finish QS Citrine and SK Rose on Fire....

These were all scanned on 6/19/10,I'll scan QS Dragon Soul a little later today and stick it in here too.

I had a great time going thru the posts and seeing all the great progress being made,there sure are some lovely charts being stitched out there:)   Everybody have a great day!

Aurora's Garden and Mermaid of the Deep SK

Since my last update, I spent the first week working on Aurora's Garden. I am nearing the completion of the first page...soon...

Before and after:




Then I went to the WIP drawer and ended up with Mermaid of the Deep (SK) in my hands. Now usually when I haven't seen a piece in a while, it feels like, "WOW! I did this? It's so pretty!" and I want to work on it because it's great and wonderful and all that. Well, not with this one. I looked at it and thought, "That's it? I worked so hard on this and this is what it looks like?" Since it was the week of the freebie SAL on the HAED BB, I worked on it, but put her back 2 days early because she just wasn't doing anything for me. I'm not that into the big eyes of JBGs and I HATE the 28 ct fabby!

Still Here

Gee I love checking out everyones progress. We've been very busy,bought a house. We're all moved in and just trying to get things done. I keep hoping the rain will go away and I'll remember to take a picture of it. In the meantime I've been able to get some stitching done . I thought I'd post some pics. I hadn't realized that I didn't post anything on SK Rose on Fire. But here are my most recent HAED updates minus In To The Light I have a good deal of rows done-from the bottom corner all 939 in row 50 I get to throw some black in but I haven't scanned it so here is SK Rose on Fire(I have restarted this 3-4 times)(sorry it's blurry) and SK Mermaid of the Deep I can't remember if I've posted QS Citrine here or not but got some more done on it too

Have a great day ladies-happy stitching!

Mermaid of the Deep SK

Hello ladies!

I know I haven't been here or very supportive in the last few weeks. :-( I do look at your progress pics and think "WOW!" and then feel like I'm not getting anything done on mine.

Here is my next progress pic of the HAED BB's SK SAL, Mermaid of the Deep. I was very happy to see this morning, in the natural light, that you can actually see the difference between 310 and the ultra very dark navy blue!

Before and after:

Wishing everyone a happy, stitchy week!

Mermaid of the Deep SK (Kim scully 236)

Hi everyone,

Here is my progress on the Mermaid of the Deep SK.  I have almost completed
my monthly goal, but of course left the confetti to last!  LOL  Anyway, she
is stitching up quite quick, but I am determined to stitch to my rotation
goals this year.

Mermaid of the Deep SK

Hello all my stitching friends!

Sometime around the end of November, I lost my HAED mojo. I don't know why, I had several WIPs to choose from. So I decided to just ride it out and stitch on Cirque des Cercles during December.

Before that time, I signed up for the freebie SK SAL on the HAED bb. On the 1st of January I started on Mermaid of the Deep. I am enjoying her very much, but inevitably she starts with #310! Oh well. Fortunately this big blob is a mixture of #310 and #979. Couldn't tell, could ya? Me either, another oh well. So here are pics of what she will look like and what she looks like now.

Happy New Year and Happy Stitching everyone!!!
