Happiness is finishing a page of a HAED design



Yes, that's right - I can hardly believe it myself . . . page 1 is finished!  I am so happy!  Last night I sat in hubby's office and stitched the last part.  He kept on asking "Can we go to sleep yet?"
"Only a few more stitches . . . " was all I said.  :)  I don't know which one of us was happier when the last stitches went in :)
I am still not happy with the little patch on her forehead but I am waiting till after I finish the right side of her face before I frog it again.  I am just going to blend it with the colours beside it.  If I don't, it will forever be jumping out at me.  Sometimes you just have to do things for peace of mind.

For some blog candy, go and visit Jenny here.  She is having a fabric give-away.  She is new to blogging, so let's make her feel welcome!  The give-away ends 21 October 2009.
EDIT:  Melissa was the lucky winner.

  1. Hi Criszette! Shoe, this is beautiful!! This is such a stunning design and such a lot of work. Good luck with your job. We have also been put on short time for October , this leave lots of time for stitching, but doesn’t help financially. Hang in there! For every door that close another one opens! God Bless. {{hugs}} Ronel

  2. Is that little patch on her forhead not a tendril of hair? She is going to be beautiful if page 1 is any indication!!

  4. I hope it's a tendril of hair. I have never been happy with any of HAED's faces. They always seem blotchy. One of the many reasons I have given up on every stitching one. Keep up the good work though. A full page is impressive!
