I've been busy this week trying to put some finishes together and get some presents for family and friends wrapped. To keep their gifts a surprise, I don't think I'll post until after Christmas - except for the few that don't have internet access. You will probably be seeing Christmas Ornament finishes in January. LOL!

So instead, I'll share with you my 2 Heaven and Earth updates.First up is HAED 2012 SAL SK Forbidden Doorway (Dillman). My last update was at 7350 stitches -when I finished Page 1. Here she is at 9244 stitches.
Fabric: Picture this Plus 28ct crystal Moonglow
DMC Threads, 1 over 1, full cross
I just love how she is coming along.

This was my first HAED purchase back in December 2009. I abandoned for quite awhile. I thought something was wrong as the picture showed a much greener bottom. I picked it up again after joining the 2011 SAL - I found the colors used blended into a different color as I continued.
This one has quite a few confetti blocks- especially in the area I'm at now (the face). I do love how it is coming out, but the 2 strands on 25ct has the back very thick and at times my needle has a difficult time.
Fabric 25ct white Irish Dublin Linen

I hope to make some more progress since next year's focus will be the SAL QS Mystic Garden.Hopefully I won't get sidetracked too much.
Have a wonderful day!

Both pieces look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteBoth your HAEDs are coming along really well. Those Stokes dragons are lovely. I have the Christmas one ( can't for the life of me remember what it is called!).
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to Mystic Garden too. Can't wait to get the floss list so I can start kitting it up.
Amazing stitching!
