Today I thought I would share one of my Heaven and Earth Design WIPS - New Girl 3 by Bec Winnel. This is my very first HAED that I have started. It is also the first stitching piece that I started after losing my stitching bug for about 7 years after my Grandpa passed away in 2008. It kind of kick-started my stitching again :)
When I was picking a design to do for my first Heaven and Earth I just looked through the site and when I stumbled across this one it just grabbed my attention and I just kept coming back to it. I love the realistic look of her face, the colors, and her eye just sucks you in. I think it reminds me a little of myself when I was younger and a lot skinnier - LOL! I am always told I have very pretty eyes and it is the eye in this one that draws you in. Anyway - Here is what she will look like in about 50 years when I get her done ;)
I just thought I would share the progress pictures I have taken so far since I started stitching her on March 28th, 2015 so here it goes:

And here is where I ended during the month of April! I had a PAGE FINISH! Page 10 is done - the edge of that page is designated by the first pin. I am also super close to having Pages 2 and Pages 11 finished also. The page edge for those is the 2nd pin straight up to the top! So I am close to almost 4 pages complete. I always enjoy working on this one. I had taken longer breaks between getting to her after trying some of the HAED challenges on other pieces.
I currently have 5 Heaven and Earth Designs started as WIPS. I alternate 4 of them as my work projects since we can bring things to do when we are not busy and I stitch on them at work. My 5th one is a super size HAED so I only work on that at home. I will share my other HAED WIPS soon :)
Thank you for stopping by today!
