Labelled my bobbins with symbols

I saw this idea on Facebook the other day and thought this is a great idea, especially for HAED projects, and once you finally complete your project then you can re use them.

I was going to get rid of my bobbins and boxes and switched to bags but now I'm thinking I might have to go back to bobbins, if this works.

So I have labelled all my threads in Cat Tales so I will give it a go and see how I find looking for colours.

Here is my box.

Gemini - Nearly there

I'm so trying to get this page finished then I can open up the design onto longer side stretchers, it's getting there slowly, can't believe this project will be 3 years old this June.

Updates 10th January 2016

I'm trying a little rotation this week. Here are my updates. 

Latest Witching Hour update

I thought I would put a picture of my latest update and the one before together on one picture.  So here we go, I'm now on 276.5 hours in total for the full bottom section.  As soon as I've stitched these last 3 pages I will take a full picture progress photo.  I'm currently on 10.5 hour for this page, I wonder if I will do it under 23 hours for the last page.

Another page complete

Yay, I have finished another page of The Witching Hour, I've spent 243 hours stitching this now.

23 hours for this page.

Bit of a while for an update on Witching Hour

I've been naughty and not updated my blog, so here is biggish update.

Here is my first bottom section completed in 193 hours.



I am a bit in now on the next row, below I'm at 229 hours stitching.



I've achieved a far bit today so I'll try and update tomorrow.

HAED - Witching Hour - 141 hours stitching

I'm hoping in the next week I'll get a bit more done on this as I was made redundant the other week so more stitching time for a little while.

I'm now on 141 hour stitching 4th section complete, 2 more to go and then we move upwards.

I have adapted my KS Creations floor stand as my NeedleNeeds on wasn't as sturdy to allow me to just pop my work on the stand.  This stand wouldn't take a 36" - 40" frame bars.
