Great finish... isn't it amazing what a difference backstitching makes in some designs? I really like seeing the in-progress photos.

Helene, that looks lovely.
But I think I sprained my tongue trying to pronounce the unfamiliar script.

A nice kit. In Russian it is called "First sucess"(in plural)(="First achievements").
I also like this firm's kits.

Richard, it is easy: "read the following in Latin:'Pervyie us'pekhi". In Ukrainian it would be even easier (Ukrainian is a phonetic language- you write and read as you speak and hear):" 'Pershi 'uspikhy".
