Hello to everyone!!
I'm sorry this has taken a while for me to post but with the kiddies not in school, routine is upside down.
I have a finish!! My first big finish of the year.
Santa and The Mouse HAED:
Started: 15th July 2013
Finished: 24th October 2013
Stitches: 22,500
Hours taken: 162 hours and 55 minutes
For future HAED's I refuse to use magic guide. I just could not get rid of the red lines. It went in the washing machine on a40C wash as recommended, it went in on a 30C wash, and it soaked overnight in vanish and scalding hot kettle water and I can still see the lines faintly. I will now use standard 25ct and a water erasable pen.
I also have a new start. Swirling Peacock by Joan Elliott.
Hubby really likes this and as it is so rare for him to find something he likes, I thought I'd stitch him up.
Here is the end result:
I have so far done the right side of the circle and he has some neck and a face. I hope to continue with him today :)
Until next time
