Drum Roll Please!

Here is the final corner done, done, done!!! I am so happy. There will be dancing in my living room as soon as I can stand. I did a bit of non stop stitching this afternoon to get this done. I don't want to think how long I stayed in my chair in order to finish this one.
So here Max is. I still have weeks of back stitching to do. I plan to take a break from Max. I have been pushing to get it to this point. The 'base stitching' is now done. I plan to enjoy some Halloween colors for a bit. Max can rest until I get back to do the back stitching. I am so happy!!

Congratulations on your finish. Max looks wonderful. It will be nice to see it when it is all backstitched. I hope you will show this picture and the finished backstitched one together so we can really see the difference that the backstitching makes. Have fun with your Halloween colors.

Max is done? Yay for you!! And you rearranged the living room today also??? You are CRAZY! I'm impressed that you have the determination to do even one of those jobs, let alone both! Stitching stuff all on the other side, huh? This will take some getting used to!
