This is the progress I have made so far on my Heaven and Earth Designs project.  It's about 5 weeks work, still a long way to go and its quite slow progress.  The time consuming bits have been the fur around the hood which has lots of confetti stitches.  I'm about to finish page 2 of 25 and I think I'll do a little bit of Celtic Spring next because the fur has me really fed up.   Still love it though!

Hi,  I'm Heather and I'm from Co Durham in the North East of England.

I started cross stitching maybe 4 years ago now and it's something I really enjoy.  

I thought I'd start this blog to show people what projects I have going and what plans I have.  I'm afraid I've never blogged before and know little about it so it will be very amateurish so bear with me folks.

I recently started my first Heaven and Earth Designs project and its proving to be very time consuming but I love the design so I will persevere with it because I think it will be fabulous.  I've also got a project called Celtic Spring going so I'll give them each their own pages and keep you updated on their progress.  I'll add pages for other things too - unless I figure out better ways to do things in which case I'll basically just do what seems right.

If anyone has any questions or wants to point out mistakes or just leave comments or advice then that would be very welcome.
