Did you say you were doing this in tent stiches? You've got good coverage and you're moving so fast.

Wonderful!!

The more TW designs I see the more tempted I am to trying one.

SO beautiful! Is there much left? It seems almost done to me. Is there backstitch to do at the end?

Excellent work!! You're moving so fast!

I'm almost done backstitching mine, but I've run into an issue with the spines on the lower back - it doesn't say what color to backstitch them with! So I'm going to search around online and see if I can figure it out...

here is what mine says:

3041 spines on dragon's back against the sky

3045 between gold back spines and r, cont. down between greend of dragon's body and r on the same side as gold back spines, ending where r stops..close to spade shaped tail

and that is all mention of the spines..

i was thinking..seriously..about doing all the bs in black..lol or a dark grey..

But backstitch sounds crazy!

I know it doesn't look like much..but in the two rows of the bottom left page you see I"ve done..there are about 1100 stitches.
And I have shown you a close up of the blended colors..which are CRAZY lol
