What's not to like? It's so cute -- and putting the back stitch in as you go is a stroke of genius. :applesauce:

Thank you for your comments. I don’t like back stitching and there is so much of it I devised a system. I work on the pattern during the week and when I have had enough I then back stitching. It seems to be working. After reading one of the posts I tried parking as I had lot of colour change, not sure kept getting threads tangled. It is nice to try different ways of doing things

Every stitch you do is 1 stitch more towards the finish. It is looking really great. Keep up the good work when you can. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

You may hate the amount of backstitch but in this design they are essential! :doh:
You seem to have found a way of surviving them though!
When every part of a design has them the only way is to do it as you go.

Having said all that i still enjoy looking at this splendid design! :applesauce: :applesauce:

Absolutely lovely!

What a lot of backstitching too, it really brings it all to life.

Well done.

That is so pretty! I love all the colours on there. And the stitching is so so neat - in particular the half stitches!
