Thank you
Pam, I do not dread backstitching at all. I love how the details start to pop out. I am a detail oriented person so I like it. I save it for last because it has been easier that way, and if I find I have to

I do not have to fight with the backstitching. This particular project though I am not looking forward to figuring out what color to use where because the chart says to use two colors to outline the bears but does not tell me where exactly to use them

When I get to the backstitching it's like reaching the final stretch and I get that antsy feeling of finishing, then I can't wait to start another.

I have started on the backstitching but it is very hard to tell so I took a kinda close up of one corner. It is almost finished, I have two bears left and then all the letters.

The stitching is complete. I still have to buy some materials to finish it for the wall.

There really wasn't much backstitching involved, just the letters and some of the bears to help define them and add the fur.
