There is a lot of confetti stitching so it is taking me forever to work on. I am stitching this 1x1 on 25 ct evenweave.
I started an ornament from the JCS 2003 ornament issue. It is I love Christmas by Gloria & Pat designs. I am stitching this on 28 ct evenweave.
I decided to stitch on a Christmas ornament on Sundays to give me a break from HAEDs.
I also received 3 HAED charts in the mail.
HAED QS Night at the Pumpkin Patch- Ching-Chou Kuik
Mini A Pale Comparison - Jasmine Becket-Griffith
Mini Village Bookstore - Randal Spangler
I have no idea when I will get to stitch these but I love the charts and collecting the HAED charts is addictive.
I finished reading The Long Quich Goodbye by Avery Aames and it was a cute cozy mystery.
I am now reading The Gin and Chowder Club by Nan Rossiter and I am enjoying it.
I also have been cutting back on tv shows as I want to get back into watching movies. So I no longerDVR Live with Kelly & Michael, or Home & Family. If General Hospital keeps up with the vampire stories then I am done with that too. Don't get me worng I loved The Twilight series and I watch The Vampire Diaries, on Thursdays, on the CW. But not on my soaps. I also stopped watching Revenge and I am getting bored with Pretty Little Liars. Next season is the last for a couple of my shows, I believe.
Happy Stitching!
love your new start and new stash!

Lovely stitching. Great new stash.
ReplyDeleteI love the Village Bookstore, it`s so Jessica Fletcher, lol! I`ve never tried stitching 1x1 on evenweave, is it hard? Do you need a magnifier? The ornie`ll be lovely too :)
ReplyDeleteAlways fun to start and stash - enjoy!
ReplyDeleteGreat new start and love your new charts:)
ReplyDeleteYou are making great progress on your new start...I totally understand about the Confetti Stitching...that is why I work on another project in the evenings.
ReplyDeleteNice progress, Shelleen.
ReplyDeleteI watch Revenge, The Bachelor, Nashville, and Once Upon A Time. Other than those shows, I don't really care for what's on TV.
I'm doing my first HAED too on 25 ct over one. At least you have a color variety. Mine is gray around the edges. I might have to try your grid pattern type next page. I'm experimenting with different ones to see if there's one I like over the others. With 25 some odd pages, that gives me a lot of time to experiment.
ReplyDeleteAwesome HAED charts!! Literate dragon does look confetti heavy, but it looks amazing for that reason. Great start stunner!
