Good idea to do the backstitch as you go along -- this way it comes to life from the very start!

You definatly need to do the backstitch on popcorn as you go! I have 3 in my stash and I haven't done them yet as just the sight of the backstitch intimidated me! THough I might dig them out after seeing how cute yours is :)

Wonderful work hun well done :)
