This is my first ever HAED finish - and the reason for my addiction!!! She is called TT Purple Dragon - by Jasmine Becket-Griffith. I used 18 count aida for the very first time - and really loved it! She is stitched using 2 over 1 full cross stitches - and I can genuinely say that I loved every single stitch!!! Being my first HAED finish - she will always hold a very special place in my heart!!
After only stitching easy designs for years, in 2010 I discovered the Heaven & Earth Designs website. HAED charts are HUGE and detailed! But this detail is achieved by only stitching full cross stitches, meaning no fractionals or backstitch EVER! So, as long as you take it stitch by stitch, you will be fine! On my blog I will post pics of my HAED finishes - plus my progress with current and new projects. I hope you like what you see, and will be inspired to give cross stitch a go!
