HAED Sale, SAL



It's the Father's Day sale at HAED, charts are 25% off through 6/20. As usual, there have been some great releases lately. Rainbow Dragon above, by Myka Jelina, is my favorite of late. That could be another addition to my bucket list.


It's interesting that several releases have been lower colors. And I like it, mostly that is only that there are simpler color schemes going on obviously. While I am certainly not scared of a lot of detail and colors(90 for a 2x10 SK is a bit ridiculous though)....I'm really looking for some finishes. Lower colors should get me a much quicker finish or two---and then I can relax on some very difficult ones after that. I was even working on a list, of lower colored charts or artists, haven't gotten real far on it as yet, but there are some lovely options, in full color, that are much less than 80-90 colors.


And so, I have picked Treasures for the mid year SAL. I absolutely wasn't going to enter, too many time constraints for the projects I want to be working on (and selling). I have abandoned SK Mermaid and SK LOTW, not going to happen, Terra Fairy...eh, someday. And Treasures isn't my favorite from the options, but it is black and white---the only reason why I entered and picked that one. I have been enjoying the simplicity of blocks of color on some other charts of late, and some things taking shape more quickly, while life has been a little crazy. I need to take advantage of some of the peace and quiet I have right now, I keep wondering if that is going to change on a dime!!


And as far as stitching....I have taken a brief break from the letter "R" to get back to Frogpile. I need to get the frogs finished and out of the way, as a family item, before I can knuckle down on much else. I would like to have it done and be able to load up Treasures asap on the same frame perhaps.

  1. Rainbow Dragon is gorgeous. I love the colors in that!! And I understand about having pressure on your stitching! I have a family project that I'm working on too.
