Well done Angel! And doesn't it add character to her? (I typed that charcater at first -- nearly left it as a more appropriate spelling :-))

That's looking so lovely with the backstitching and the subtle background and everything falling into place -- great work Angel!

Thank you ^_^ Yeah, the backstitch brings the whole piece alive, I like how the pattern has captured the fur for this, little lines here and there rather than a solid outline...so much more fun to do and looks so much better I think.
