At first I want to thank you for 1000 visits! Wohoo~
Does it mean that my blog is at least a liiiittle bit interesting?
And another big THANK YOU everyone to everyone who stops by and leaves a comment. I'm always really happy about those!

Yesterday or the day before I got another HAED gift certificate for sending Japanese sweets to USA. 30 Dollar to spend while sale, what more do I want?
So of course I got weak again and spend the gift certificate at once AND some extra money because it's christmas and I feel like spending.
Which makes me having 4 (four!) new charts. I have no idea when to stitch them all but maybe I'm just addicted. Matching to christmas time I got O Kitten Tree by Randal Spangler (it's a set of three along with Here Comes Santa Paws and Frosty the Snowcat, and I want those both too!) and QS Holly Fairy by Ching-Chou Kuik. Recently I fell in love with the work of two artists I never spend much attention before. One is Jane Woost Scott and her beautiful town scenes from a long-gone time! I bought The Quilts of Cape Cod and added several others to my wishlist! I've seen the Quilts stitched at two Japanese HAED blogs and it looks so lovely!
The other artist is Linda Ravenscroft. I don't now why I never really looked at her artwork but it's amazing! I would love to have her Zodiac Fairy series but I don't know if I will ever manage to stitch them all. So I got myself satisfied with The Sweet Tooth Fairy. I love this as it's cute yet macabre!

I with this I promise not to purchase any new charts from HAED until my birthday in July!! (except they are going to release From The Mist by Ching-Chou Kuik anytime soon or some of my favorite artists retire which will mean they take the charts down so I have to get them before)

Now it's even harder to decide what to start in February next year!! OHOH.... Maybe I have to allot! At the moment I really want to do the Sweet Tooth Fairy...

And as a blog entry without pictures is kind of boring, here is my update of page 5 of Fly Me. I managed nearly 800 stitches yesterday!!

I hope to have this page (and the first of Bunch of Love) finished by the end of the year!
And I love how the aura of the Fairy slowed slides into the scene! Makes it very misterious.
