Thanks for all the nice comments! Raven, do you railroad every picture you stitch? I find myself just doing the ones on smaller count fabric and if it's a smaller design also.

I finished this today! It's quite different from the picture on the kit, because I didn't use the pre-colored fabric. I made this for my daughter, and she only wanted the center motif, not all the surrounding areas. She also didn't want the backstitching lines in the bow. She thought it looked better without them.

Thank you for your nice comments. This was one of those projects that had I not been making it for someone else, I probably wouldn't have finished. It had so much backstitching in it, which I don't like to do. It took a lot to keep on with it, and seeing how much my daughter likes it, I'm glad I finished it.
