The last few weekends have felt pretty "normal." I've been visiting blogs, admiring everyone's work, and I've picked up the needle again. Yeah! Remember the little kitten ornament I started during the Olympics? Well, I completed the stitching,...
and I finished the back stitching.
I'll admit that back stitching is not my favorite part of the process, but it certainly makes a difference. I'll hold off on really "finishing" this little guy until the other kittens are stitched and ready (so who knows what decade that will be). For now, though, I'm back at it!

BIG HUGS Teri!!
It is amazing how a little backstitching can bring dimension to a project like that! Your cat looks great!
It's so adorable. The BS really does make a difference
Happy to see you back! Love the kitty ornament. I kind of like back stitching for some reason...maybe because I don't need to think as much about it :)
Hi Teri! adorable finish!
Your finish is adorable. I hear you on the backstitching thing. Ugh. But it sure did make the design just perfect!
Sending big hugs too!
I'm so glad you are feeling better. The little kitty just jumps off the fabric - I can almost feel it breathing!
Teri,
I was just reading through your blog, and I can't express how sorry I am for what you've been through. It's very scary to me hearing stories like that, and I'm incredibly thankful you posted it bc it reminds me to take care for the health of my family and myself, and to not be so complacent. Thank you so very much.
I really enjoy your stitching, and your kitten turned out beautifully! And I love that you have the Jenny Bean sampler - do you know how many times I've looked at it on Scarlet Letter? I love it!

Welcome back. Yes back stitching can be a right pain but it just seems to make the project pop.
A big hug from me too. - Sandra.
