It's not much but....



This is my first 10x10 square of Sleeping Beauty's Castle. I know it's not much and I have a LONGGGGGGGGG way to go but, I was so happy to work on the square today and get it down.

It's my first HAED and I'm so excited to be doing it. I have a bunch of others I want to start now too but, I'm going to be good and stick to just this one for a while. I've wanted to do a HAED for a while but, have just been nervous about doing one. My DH said to me the other day. 'well if you think it would be to difficult. Don't do it.' I never think anything is to difficult or hard to stitch. I know I can stitch anything that is put in front of me. It's just a matter of wanting to do it. I mean if a pattern doesn't appeal to you why bother doing it!?! Right. :)

Great start on your HAED. I am a little intimidated by starting one, but all it takes is that first leap! Can't wait to see more! Your stitches look so neat and pretty!

Congrats on starting your first HAED design ... personally I'd be ripping my hair out with all that over-one, but I adore seeing someone else stitching them :)
