My own kind of Maynia !

I am intrigued by the idea of Maynia and kind of wanted to take part , but I don't really do smalls as such and the idea of having that many starts would terrify me .
 So , as I have been on sick leave for the last few weeks following surgery , I decided to start a new HAED , with the aim of working on it every day of May and seeing how much I could get done.
  Coincidentally , On the HAED fb page , a challenge popped up starting 26th April to do a new start and try and complete a page by 26th June , my kind of thing.

  So , I decided to do this one as it was already kitted up , apart from fabric , and most of it from stash. .
 The first page was completed on 20th May

 I was cursing the confetti at the end , but the eye looks fabulous.
 And this is where I'm at with the second page.

 There are two partial pages underneath , so I am hopeful of a finish in the next couple of months as I am totally loving stitching on this.

   A couple of quick finishes for a friend , an Easter card and bookmark that I made.
 Still waiting on an appointment with a liver specialist , but my blood tests are showing improvements so , got to look on the bright side.

  Thanks for dropping by ,
 Cath

Wow that stitching is amazing. I 've seen a few HAEDS and they always looked very close stitching and I can see looking at yours it is, hope you really enjoy your stitching. And I read back and see you've had a tough time, so pleased to read the better news but I know from experience life can be pretty scary at times. Great your bloods are looking better, hope all turns out well for you. Take care Cath, Blessings.
