I'm finding this stitch really easy, as i'm loving every minute. Although i'm gonna have to put it on hold in a few weeks as I need to start a baby sampler for my nephew due in November, don't want to leave it to the last minute :) and I stilll don't have a clue what to stitch yet :thinks: something Winnie the Pooh, i've been told by my sis. So need to get as much stitching done as poss these next couple of weeks, hoping to finish bar the backstitch.

118 hours.
This is my last post on this one for a while...

All I have to do now is the backstitch. My new nephew is due in November so I think i'd better make a start on my next project a "Winnie the Pooh" baby sampler.

I'll come back to this as soon as i'm finished tho :)

WOW! This has come out great! The backstitch should make the whole thing pop out even more although I think it looks good even without the backstitch. :applesauce: :applesauce:
