I have been stitching in this lost time, but it has been mostly on my HAED designs. I was motivated to get back to stitching on Santa's List, my Christmas HAED WIP, by an informal HAED SAL organized by Cindy F. Then I received a message from Denise on the HAED Forum that she was getting the Christmas SAL there restarted. I was already working on Santa's List, so I joined that one as well. Then I was delighted to find that Cindy and Wendy started a blog for HAED stitchers called Our Friends HAED SAL, which I also joined. When I finished my first page on Santa's List, I still wanted to stitch on a HAED, but I was ready to do something different. So I pulled Fairy Village out of the drawer, and then later retrieved May I Have This Dance as well. I have enjoyed getting back to stitching these designs. Progress is slow, but I enjoy watching the design emerge onto the fabric. Here are some updated pictures.
First is Santa's List by Ruth Sanderson. I have finished the first page.
Next is Fairy Village by Lisa Victoria. I have about 2 and 1/2 pages done.
And finally, here is May I Have This Dance, which I am still stitching away on as of yesterday. I have almost finished 4 pages, but only one of them was a full page. I have approximately 11,000 stitches completed. 
I have stitched a little bit on some other things, keeping up with a couple other SALs, but I am going to save those for another post, or this one will become rather unwieldly.
happy stitching everyone!

OMG, Laura, you are stitching on three HAEDs at the same time. That's a challenge but a real great one. I'd love to be brave enough to buy and start my first HAED ...
Wow, Laura, your HAEDs are looking fantastic! I don't know how you cope with 3 BAPS though!
Your HAED's look great.
I like to have more then one WIP to pick from depending on the mood.
You Go Girl!!
Wow, much kudos for having the stamina to have more than one HAED project on the go at a time! Beautiful work. :0)
Your HAEDs look fabulous. Love the wings of May I have This Dance.
Oooh I just love all your 3 WIP's on your HAED. I also have diffent WIP's for the moment, but I mostly stitching on my HAED now, because I really want to finish my first page. I love to stitch the HAED and have some more on my wishlist.
Wow girl, they are simply gorgeous. I can't believe you have three of them on the go. I am working away at my first one and finding it a challenge. I admire you for being able to handle that many.
Holy cow! Those look absolutely fabulous! I don't think I could handle doing more than one HAED at a time. You go, girl!
c'est fou! j'ai cru au premier abord que c'était une peinture !!! quel boulot! bravo ...
Beautiful progress you made and all 3 works are so beautiful !!!
Wow, they look great, especially the last one!
Bye, Carolien
Hey Laura! Decided that I needed to post a comment so you would know I was looking.... :-) I'm impressed with your HAED's. I got brave enough to start mine - Sailing through life. I'm on the 2nd column of the sky on the 1st page. Had to set it down for a while but maybe 10 years from now it will be beautiful.....
