    Afternoon all

    I really must ban muyself from looking on the HAE website :o-I have just spotted 3 more in their April releases ...but I AM resisting...:A:rotfl:

    http://heavenandearthdesigns.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=5918
    she only has 16 colours -but sooooo much detail ..I bet the 1 of this and 1 of that they need to get the detail would be enough to drive you crazy :p
    then there is this one:-

    Posted this later on last night but would really appreciate some thoughts on it before I part with my cash (and my sanity)

    "Have been lurking around the HAED site and really like this one (fingers crossed link works) I know it will take me forever and will probably drive me mad but it is for me and not for anyone else for a change - any thoughts (and any idea how many years it will take me?)

    http://heavenandearthdesigns.com/ind...oducts_id=3435

    Haven't bought it yet though! Just really tempted"


    Wow that's big!!:D

    I would guesstimate at that taking about a year, and that's stitching a lot.

    It looks fairly straightforward though, big chunks of colour, there won't be much confetti stitching on it, it's the sort of design you can work on while you watch tv :D


    Edited: just read further and noticed you have bought it - good luck, we will want PICS!! :j

    I use photobucket and haven't had any problems. Otherwise Flickr holds pics, and might work. Some people on here do it via facebook somehow.

    That is presumably one year of stitching without a full time job (+homework), two children and a dh to look after - I think maybe the 'get it done for my 60th' might be more realistic for me :rotfl:
