Ooops.

I have a confession to make.

Tiny and I were on a (play) date on Sunday. (Play date as he had his kids with him. *grin*)

It seems that we might actually meet him again in future when I have moved and settled down. Or then I don't understand men at all anymore... *grin*

Ooops.

Like a leaf aka. RAKed

Couple of days ago I posted a link to one HAED design to my Facebook profile and had a little discussion in the comments with Anne about it as it was in my basket at HAED, but I couldn't justify it to myself even it was -50% off.
Well, I went to bed and the next day I had an email from HAED waiting for me! I had been RAKed by Anne who bought it to me as a housewarming gift!

Said design was Randal Spangler's Sanctuary of Knowledge and you probably understand why I fell in love with it...

Yes, books. A lot of books. (And fairies, of course. Little peris flying all around...)

One "like" factor is that it has so many little details that I might actually have endurance to stitch this one day, as even HAED's site is full of beautiful designs SO many of them have ton of background stitching which would make me abandon whole design (I know they have background removal service). With my attention sp-oh a butterfly!-an it's just wise to try to only like really, really detailed BAPs.

And naturally being Insanette of Needleworks I dream of stitching this on 40 count, over one. (Mind you, this is HUGE design (625 W by 468 H) and it will be big even on that.)

One more "Must Stitch"

HAED had a Halloween sale and as I was cunningly lured to their site I had to buy two quick stitches, this being the one I WANT to stitch now:


Motherhood QS by Selina Fenech and HAED

On 40 count linen, over one, obviously. You know me.
