I have already started the squirrels again, while I remember all the symbols and their threads.It is too dark for backstitching- has been raining since last night. And yes, I do like these designs. It may happen so that they will be stitched for my dear self some day, but not soon.

:applesauce: :applesauce: This is so beautiful! You make the loveliest table runners. I agree with Wendy that this is one of my favorite ones. Something about it is especially warm and welcoming.

Is it only to me, or do the cup and its saucer look lopsided to you too?

A lovely update for sure Lyudmyla. You certainly are moving towards the finish line which is not all that far away.
As for the Saucer, I hadn't particularly noticed that it is perhaps a bit out of kilter. I went back and looked at the one I did last year and yes the saucer back line should maybe have been dropped a row lower. It is more noticeable on your version as you stitching on 14 ct I think whilst the one I did is on 18ct. If it is bothering you perhaps you could go back and lower it??? Just a thought.
A lovely update :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Funny enough, on the 11ct the saucer looks OK. It is the 14 count that began to show some non-pergections. I will live. And so will the 14ct version. When backstitched, washed and ironed, it will look better, I am sure.

No, the saucer does not look lopsided to me.

In stitching I never say "never". But these particular squirrels would be stitched for the third time only for 10 000 US dollars, not a cent less.
