Oh I love the design, and your stitching. It looks like fun with all the different colors. I, too, dislike back stitching and try to do it as I go whenever possible.

Having 5x5 grid lines on a chart is a real pain I've had it on a couple of charts some years ago. :(

I really like buildings in a row designs, but I can't remember ever doing one. What's up with that?

I finished another one! Yeah! It's this one and it took a year and a half to do so. It needs a good washing but I'm so excited that I can cross it off my WIP list. I draped it over the back of my office chair so I could take a picture and I didn't do a very good job. I'm going to take a break before I start the next season (don't know which one) but I highly recommend these patterns to anyone interested. Their quick and easy and have natural stopping points along the way. If you do gridlines just make them 5x5 instead of 10x10 and you'll do fine.
