I do think the mini's have a certain appeal, though. 12 pages versus 42 is becoming more and more appealing!

I think the larger pieces are great value as far as hobbies go - just think how many hours of pleasure you must have had stitching on your beautiful HAED charts.<br />My husband has little interest in my stitching I'm afraid. He doesn't really like anything "hand-made".

I was just stitching them too fast, and with the cost of all of the beads and accessories, it was too expensive. At least Heaven and Earth Designs keep me busy for a year or more. Plus, I always have the end game in mine - the finish. That also helps me from getting too excited to start a new project. But now that Winter Hat Owl is winding down, I've got my next one lined up. I'm so excited too!<br />Rai Rai's Stitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00864311481716163988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6856235367398509299.post-87465188816580902832015-10-29T14:27:32.868-07:002015-10-29T14:27:32.868-07:00Wow, you always seems to stitch so fast!

I think he's finally starting to resign himself to the fact that this will be a permanent thing in our lives. He still groans and gripes when I tell him I need to run to the craft store but I know if I really needed something he would get it for me.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187502290685197741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6856235367398509299.post-32817959221259642792015-10-27T20:30:59.139-07:002015-10-27T20:30:59.139-07:00Wow adrift is looking great Wow adrift is looking great Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04309363572915968325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6856235367398509299.post-40959765902395034912015-10-27T15:33:24.135-07:002015-10-27T15:33:24.135-07:00Adrift is looking amazing!
