And for those who may have wondered, no, this design wasn't in my WIP list (hanging head in shame). But when my magazine came, she just called out for me to stitch her. That's my story, and I'm sticking with it!

I Don't Like Backstitching, But...

This afternoon I finished it up, and even though there isn't a huge amount of backstitching, it really made a big difference:
So now I have this cute little piece, and absolutely nothing to do with it. Into the "finished, but nothing to do with it" bucket it goes.
