Herculean Work

Amazon April, aka largest project. Stitch count-wise I think I might have some bigger projects, but physical size-wise Ganesha takes the cake.

And now that I've finished off Elemental Dragons, He is also my oldest WIP. With this picture I have now stitched more on him in this month than I had in the last two years.

Apparently starting those HAEDs have given me a better handle on how to handle serious confetti. Since He's fully gridded I'm going with a combination block by block and cross-country.
It doesn't look like much change since last time, but I've finished off all the black and a good chunk of the background.

Looks like its coming along great! I once attempted a HAED and just couldn't finish it... So koodos!

I think it looks outstanding!! I'll share that...after working on my first HAED, tackling the confetti is actually enjoyable now! Keep up the beautiful stitching!

Looking good. I'm close to finishing a bookmark so deciding if I want to finish that up or drag out the dragon.

Nice job! Also nice that you already have him all gridded...I'm sure that's saving a lot of trouble
