A few more pictures for you. I finished all the cross stitch except for a little bit on the bottom of her leg where I ran out of one colour (getting replacement today though so I can finish it).

Then I started on the backstitch - actually enjoying doing it too! I love the way it makes the bunny and deer look furry.

Isn't it amazing how effectively the backstitch suggests fur?

Thank you! She's a beauty, isn't she? She won't be lonely for long, I'll be starting the brave in a few weeks when I've got through my rotation again.
