Great progress :applesauce: -- I was looking at it half backstitched and half without, and realised that actually it looks very beautiful both ways; the one very defined and vibrant, the other soft and delicate!

You're right, Mabel. It could go either way. I thought I would save the backstitching until the end.

I updated this thread. I put the updated picture on the first page so the progression could be seen.
I decided to just work on this project and save the "My Sweet Rose" until after I finish.

I dont know how to make the picture look better than this. Any advice? Looks so light.

love

Great progress! :applesauce: :wub:

...as for the pic quality...you can edit it before uploading here...in my case, I use Picture Motion Browser or Adobe Photoshop CS3. :)

Thanks! I'll be glad to get into the blues of the vase after just greens and pinks.

Just uploaded my update on the first page at the bottom. Thank goodness my big flubs on that large bloom aren't noticeable. :dance:
