That is just gorgeous!! :wub:

I just love how the cut thru designs come alive with the backstitch....I know there is a lot of it but I'm guessing it's actually fun to do on those designs?

Great progress! How do you find the backstitch? you're doing it a bit at a time, that seems sensible.

I've just got the cut thru stable, should be s good antidote to all the confetti in my current project!!

This is an adorable design but you must be a saint to tackle all that backstitching!

Thanks again everyone! :D I've finished the green now and I'm just tackling some more back stitch and to be honest, although there is a lot of it, I'm really enjoying it as it makes the picture come alive!
