Love to see someone doing 22ct 2 over 1. That's what I'm planning on doing when I eventually get around to starting my Christmas HAED. You made such quick progress too. And wanted to ask. As this is your first HAED, how are you liking it? I'm what i think they call a cross country stitcher and used...

Oh how to remember all I have to confess :lol: :lol: :lol: - I am nearly as careful about the back of my work as I am the front!!! It is exceptionally neat!!!! - I can only work on one project at any time. I would love to be able to have various projects on rotation, but I feel like I'm cheating on ...

Slow progress since my last update, been a bit busy with the kids (end of school year stuff) but I'm getting there now...the end is in sight!!!!!!

Progress report, it's getting there!!!!

Hi guys. I am just over half way through a HAED, been at it for about 1.5yrs and it is filthy. I was planning to wash it at the end as I was afraid if I washed it half way through it might fade the threads slightly so that there would be a noticable difference in the colour in the stitches that were...

Hi I have been cross stitching for many years (since I was 7) and am currently doing my 1st HAED piece. I have always been a cross country stitcher but I am now interested in the parking method. I have youtubed and googled and have a fair idea what I'm doing. My question is do you work in 10 across ...

Oh it's lovely!! Fab progress. It's nice to see it on 22 count 2 over 1 as that is how I'm doing my first HAED just started. Are you using hardanger or Oslo? Or something else? Niki xxx Thanks a million, I'm loving how it is turning out on the 22ct 2 over 1. I'm using hardanger. Best of luck with y...

Thanks guys, I'm loving how it is turning out. This is my 1st HAED project and I love them, I will find it very hard to do anything else in future

Oh that will be such a lovely personal gift for your mum and stepdad. Looking forward to seeing it progress. Good luck with it I hope you get it done for your Dec date

That is looking great, well done

Hi This is my HAED progress at the moment. I've been at it on and off now for about 1yr give or take a few smaller projects (ie. wedding and baby samplers). I'm doing it on 22ct fabric 2strands over 1. Hoping to have it completed and framed by Christmas 2014 but another HAED is catching my eye so wh...

I use the 8x8 qsnap I am currently doing a HAED and just move it around. Never had a problem with clipping over stitches. I don't use a frame with it.

Gorgeous

Gorgeous, I love butterflies too

It's very sad. I especially love his 'A trusted friend' may get my hands on it to stitch soon.

I have a few bits here but nothing that I really want 2 do and I don't really want 2 start something else cause it'll just be left unfinished when my HAED arrives, which I'm really hoping will be Tuesday but who knows!!!

I am about 2 start my 1st HAED and ordered what I needed, but it hasn't arrived yet and now due 2 the holidays won't be here till at least Tuesday. Unfortunately I live nowhere near anywhere that sells what I need so have to order online. I have finished the project I was working on so now have noth...

Wow can't believe how much you've got done, brilliant. It is an amazing piece. Good luck with the rest of it.

Thanks I'll test the 1x1 on the 22ct to see how it looks, but I like a good coverage and usually do 3x1 on 14ct. I will check out the HAED forum sounds good, thanks. I'm really excited about this project and it's good to get motivation from these forums. I just wish the threads would hurry up and ar...
