She's gorgeous! I assume there'll be backstitching which will really bring her to life. :wub: :D :D

It's been a while since I have worked on this one and just got around recently to doing some more stitching on her. I had to move the qsnaps so I took the advantage and took a picture of my progress. Getting real close now

Thanks for all of the wonderful replies, it has definitely helped me to make progress on her

At long last she is finished!! I left off the top part of the background just didn't seem to need it with the fabric I used. Backstitching and specialty stitches took a bit of doing but I struggle through and I am glad that I did!! Thanks for all of the encouragement!!!

You have done a great job. I cant help admiring your backstitch - it makes the kid so real- arms, hair, eyebrows, and especially eyelashes- it is always so difficult not to overdo- a millimetre makes a difference. You coped with the task perfectly well. :applesauce:

Oh Karen she is magnificent and oh so lovely and lovingly stitched. I hope you are proud of your work on her. The fabric also sets it off and a good choice to not do any stitching there on the left. :whoop: :whoop: :whoop: :whoop:

Very nice finish.
I do like the highlighting backstitch you've done on the hair, helps definition & looks very good.

Regards,

Richard
