You are so close to finishing. It already looks fab and once you get those french knots and backstitch in to make the images pop, it's going to be unbelievable.

So looking forward to seeing the finished product here. :dance: :dance:

I love seeing this project come together. This kit has been on my short list for what feels like forever and my recent bout of tendinitis isn't letting that short list get any shorter. Thanks for letting me enjoy this project vicariously through you! I can't wait til the wrist pain is manageable so I can get around to stitching this one myself! Good luck on the french knots!

Finally started on the backstitch - doesn't show hugely well but have started backstitching the cabin. All the 'basic' stitching now done. :D

Ignore my top which has stuck out into the piccy (really must go on diet!!) :lol: :lol:

I compared this pic to your last one before the backstitching, I do see a difference and it looks great!

It must feel so awesome to be done with the stitching part of the design. Is there alot of bachstitching to be done on this one? Are you almost done?

This is so beautiful, and the backstitch will give it just that finished feel!

BTW, your top goes well with the design :-)
