Re: Ark's stuff
So many pretties! I especially love the penguin, the tinycorn and the awesome blankets. Good to see you back, looking forward to seeing more of the Heaven and Earth stitch!

Re: Ark's stuff
Thanks! I've started a challenge on the official HAED facebook group - to do 1000 stitches in 10x10 blocks, but they can't be touching for more than a corner. So it looks like a checkerboard when you've done it. There's a free pattern at the end of it for participants, so why not.
I think i'll go up a count or two for the horsey one I got though - stitching in the hand isn't cooperating for 22ct lol. Thankfully, I have some 16 or 18ct in my stash box that'll be big enough. I've only done a hundred stitches or so and it's just not sitting right.
edit: Oh! I did this QR one too, ages ago. It's a quote from Garrus Vakarian, from Mass Effect 2. (i've also fallen down into Shakarian hell. it's great! *cries forever*) it *should* scan.
also I found this - kinda nsfw? Has the "F word" in it. A quote from a friend, that sums up knitting/crocheting when it's just not cooperating.
aaand while I was looking for the QR stitch, I found this! it's my mum's (year late) wedding present. It's her own fault, she moved the dates lol

Re: Ark's stuff
Thanks! I rage quit on it a few times though - it's a bad one for working on it but nothing seems to be happening. If I do it again, i'm using a higher count and ten stitching lol.Firehawke wrote:Such a lovely butterfly!
