Beautiful work on both projects! I like the softer look of things when they aren't backstitched. Of course, there are some things that really do need it, but I leave it out, too, whenever I can. :applesauce:

The horses look great, and I agree, they don't need the back stitch

thank you
i'm glad you agree it means i can relex about it otherwise i'd have had to have another go at back stitching it,
i do hope they'll like it, they've gone though some rough weeks in the last few weeks ,and were worried they might have to get rid of their 2 horses ,they don't have children so they live for them though choice ,hopefully things will be ok and i'm hoping this will cheer them up ,they have both seen and know how long stitching takes so hopefully will appricate it
