HAED Rotation

Crazy January

I have joined a modified Crazy January Challenge on one of my Yahoo groups Stitching Sisters. Since I only stitch on huge HAED's it was decided that I can count page finishes this year. I have entered all 10 of my HAED's in the challenge. They are in no particular order: The Astronomer,Train of Dreams,Chocolate Chocolate & More Chocolate, Sundae Delight,Treasure Quest,Afternoon Tea,Computer Catastrophes,The Universe in a Jar, Midieval Shelf & Reading by Firefly Light.
Since Reading by Firefly Light was my new January 1st start it in the first in the challenge. I actually got alot of stitching in this week & I am happy to say I have a finish. I started at the bottom left & I finished the page.(DH says I cheat because it is only a partial page)but I say it's still a page no matter how small. I put in 1136 stitches last week. Not bad since most of my stitching time is after work when I'm tired. Granted I did have Monday off for the holiday but still...
Today I am switching to Sundae Delight (yes Caite it is up next). More banana.
The pictures(in whichever order blogger allows) are my working copy of RBFL & what I accomplished this past week.



















I hope everyone has a wonderful week. See you next Sunday.

    Good for you, Cindy! Several of the Crazy January Challenges concede that one page of a HAED is equivalent to, or probably more than, most other projects in stitching time. Enjoy! Theresa

    A page is a page, no matter how much of the chart is on it. It looks great. Have a great week!

    LOL - All I could think of was the Whos from Whoville saying a person is a person no matter how small; so I think that a page is also a page no matter how small :)

    Your stitching looks great!

    I always admire those who stitch HAEDS. My mind boggles at the number of stitches.

    What a great start Cindy. As everyone has agreed, you can happily say you have a 'finish' partial page or not. Others I have seen (myself included) have started the 2012 challenge with several quick little designs (less than 100 x 150 and not full coverage) so over 1100 stitches is fully equal to a 'fair' and non-cheaty 'finish'

    Whatever one decides is a finish, seems to be a finish to me. So well done for your page finish.
