I had surgery on 24 January so didn't get around to posting an update for January.  Here is HAED Spirit of Winter by Josephine Wall.  Finished 2 pages.  Starting to see the holly in her hair.

October Update

Nearly there, just 3 more pages to go.  Hopefully she'll be finished before Christmas.  I did a lot of stitching in October, but now summer is coming I won't be getting as much stitching time in - the garden and running will take away some of my stitching time.

september update






Just realised I haven't posted my September update yet.  I started Spirit of Winter, by Josephine Wall, an HAED design.  I'm so excited.  I love how it is stitching up.  I finished the first page 7840 stitches in 53.5 hours.  This is the top of her hood appearing.
I'm now back to Love Letter.  Not sure if I'll finish LL this rotation, we'll see how she goes.
