Yay for being able to stitch outside in the sun, I love to do that as well!
Also being able to enlarge your photo so much, I can see just how impeccable your stitches are. Very well done and I'm already looking forward to your next update.

A great update Helene and yes, stitching outside is the best of all to get a clear good light.:) I was out on my balcony in the sun for a while yesterday!

This is coming along just the thing, isn't it? And what luxury being able to stitch outside -- such a treat.

Thank you for all your kind words. It means a lot. :)

This is the next update. I think the backstitch will help a lot in this design. It is for my DH. He likes running and the determination on the cat's face makes him laugh!

and there are no better reasons for stitching it for him. A great update Helene - your afternoon sitting in the sun stitching is helping a lot to get this little fellow stitched and on the wall. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Thank you again for all your comments :D
I am just posting this one photo before finishing, I think :whoop:
This is the result of another afternoon in the sunshine! Just the ground to stitch and then the backstitch.
