This is what I have so far for my Supersized MAX color Treasure Hunt Bookshelf from HAED. I've gotten a lot farther on it since but I haven't taken a recent picture. I will aim to take a picture at the end of each month to show its progress :)

Millennium Frame Status
i was beginning to loose hope but I finally receive the email I've been waiting for! My Millennium Frame is finally on its way! Travel safely my precious! Lol I also received an email that the order I made for my friend two weeks ago is in process, which it took my first order 4 weeks and a phone call. Guess I had better timing with hers. I can't wait! Now I'll be stalking ups daily for tracking updates!

Another Milliennium Frames update
Surprise surprise, I called Needle Needs again today... And the gentleman said they will ship my order on Monday. Do I believe him? Nope... I'll probably end up calling them again on Wednesday. Give them an extra day ... We'll see what happens.

Millennium frame update
I gave another call this morning to England. The gentleman remembered who I was (maybe I've been calling too much?) he said they had sent out a lot of orders but he would have to call me back because there was a lot to go through to see if mine had been shipped out. I told him I was calling because I was told my order would be shipped out by the end of the week (last week) and I had not received a tracking email. So he said he would write my name down and call me back. Since I'm calling internationally I knew it would be difficult to receive a call so I told him I'd call again Friday if I do not hear from them. So we'll see til then :(

Millennium Frame
So like many stitchers out there I have fallen in love with the idea of having a millennium frame to start my great cross stitching adventures with. Even with all the warnings on how long the wait is I decided to make my purchase.
The Millennium Frame is hand made and shipped from a company in England called Needle Needs. Many people have said their orders took 3 months to 6 months to be fulfilled. So i was dreading the long wait. Regardless I placed my order for the 36" bars and the 8"-10" stretchers on 04/16/16 and crossed my fingers. I sent them a query e-mail asking how long the wait was until my order would take out of curiosity. They didn't respond to my e-mail til a month later saying what their website says that it takes 8 to 12 weeks.
After reading from one person they got their order in three weeks from constantly calling the company I decided to try it out. Now calling the UK from my cell sounded like it was going to be pricey. So I found this neat little app called WePhone that even gave a free credit of 60 cents (not a bad deal) and I bought a dollar credit just in case.
I decided to make a second order for additional bars (a 24" and 12") for future projects on 05/2/2016. I don't really care when these will arrive since the project I chose needs the 36" bars (more on that on a later post).
After a month of waiting on my first order I decided to place my first call to the UK on 05/13/16. I spoke to a lady who told me that i can expect my order to ship out in 2 to 3 weeks. She seemed very nice about it and changed the status of my order to processing. So being the impatient person I am I decided to call the next week on 05/23/2016. I spoke to a gentleman this time and he said my order should ship out in the next few days. Wasn't the original estimate but I wasn't complaining. Another week went by and still no e-mail of it being shipped. I then decided to call again on 05/31/16 after the holiday. I spoke to the same gentleman again and he said it should ship out by the end of the week.
I made a third order for my friend as a Birthday/Christmas gift on 06/1/16, being that her birthday is in November I figured it should have plenty of time getting here and i don't need to bug them about it. I also got an e-mail the same day saying that the order I placed in the beginning of May for my additional bars was being processed without asking them about it.
That's where I stand for now... I'll make another update next week on if they decided to finally ship my frame or if i have to call them again. I've only used 20 cents at this point so I'm still using the free credit WePhone gave with downloading their app :)
