It's looking wonderful! 
Yup! I started to do it this way some years ago because I think it's sooo boring to be finnished - but not finnished at all because of the backstitches... But if it's french knots, couching and/or cording in a picture, I wait with them to I'm finnished with all other stitches.Crafteresa wrote:do you usually work on a section (reindeer) and back-stitch it before you move on to another section?
Very nice update!! What a delightful stocking this is going to make!! I've got a cold, so even stitching is hard now... I breath with an open mouth while stitching 
So I'm not as fast as I want. I have never used so much time on a stocking before, but how many stockings have been stitched in Norway, over the Atlantic Osean, in Florida, between Norway and Greece and in Crete? And also, I have bought some dressers that I have put together (auuu in my hand and thumb), but now I have more space for my stitching stash the stocking is beautiful even if its taking a bit longer. Take care of yourself. I hope you are feeling better soon. 
hi santa!
But my nephew has birthday the 16th of september, and all the 4 stockings is for my sisters children, so I can't stop now.... 
I think the stocking is great and that you are an extra special aunt to be doing these. what lucky nieces and nephews you have. And it looks like you're almost done, I see the heel there! Great update and looks fantastic!!!
