I'm so so sorry for the lack of posting! It's been one and a half year since my last post (shame on me). But finally, here's the Z of zonnebloem (sun flower) and zomerkoninkjes (strawberries):

Besides the back stitching, the Z and with that the whole alphabet is completed :)

The next post will contain pictures of the backstitching and the sampler being framed for my father's birthday
