When I stitch a HaED, I use both the parking and the cross country method.I find one of the downsides of parking, when you are working on a highly confettid area, is sometimes you bring the thread up at the wrong spot.
How many of us who have parked, go to park a thread, only to find another in its place?
Ive found what helps with this, is when I park a thread, I draw a line through the bottom of the square in the pattern. This tells me there is a thread parked there.(When I complete the stitch, I color the entire box in).This way, if I go to park a thread and there is already one in that particular hole, I can look at my pattern and usually easily see where that thread should go.
Its not perfect, but it has helped.

Thank you. I keep forgetting about parking except when filling in back stitch.
