IHSW
Wohoo I had a very successful IHSW. How did you do? I started a new HAED for this weekend. Here is how far I got...
I'm so pleased. If you have worked on HAEDs you know why this took me so long even though it's a small piece 3 inches tall by 2 inches wide. This pattern has 90 colors in it and I swear probably 50 in this little section. This is the first one I've worked on that doesn't have background on it and it really is a lot more difficult. Most the time it's line by line. This type has a lot more counting. The tail is finished and I love the little blue's and green's spread in there. I think I'm going to keep working on this one this week.
Hope everyone has a great week!

Nice progress, Katie!
You did make lots of progress! Looks great.
Looks like you enjoyed it and made some great progress! Love the dragonfly!!
Hello
Your new start is lovely - 90 colours eek!

You are off to a great start, I look forward to seeing more of it.
I didn't realize it would be more difficult without the background. It will certainly look very beautiful! Keep on stitching!
Fantabulous! :)
I love it! Great progress! You made good use of your time during this IHSW! Maybe one day I will attempt to tackle an HAED piece, but I'm just not brave enough! but in the meantime, I'll enjoy watching the work of those who are!
What a great start Katie. It is a gorgeous one.

Wow Katie great progress. I think that HAED charts are beautiful but never had the guts to try one.

It's so beautiful, but 90 colours!!! Gotta love HAED.
I still haven't been brave enough to start a HAED. This looks great!
I love dragonflies and yours looks fab!
Gorgeous!
that dragonfly is just lovely!
I can't believe how many colors in such a small piece. The blues of his tail really are lovely though, and probably wouldn't look as amazing with any less colors.
Great progress (and a HAED start)!! What a sucessful hermit, and I agree the ones without the background are so hard, all that confetti!
