It is finished. The person who commissioned this piece had me take out some leaves and put in an extra bird. The background took a lot longer than I was expecting.

I started and finished the fence and have begun the house. The person who commissioned this has changed the color of the house from cream to pink because she was worried the cream would fade into the color of the fabric.

I have now finished the half stitches and now only have the backstitching and the french knots left.

I am able to move my q-snap a little over an inch to free up fabric, so that is exciting.

Still working on the background. It is far more of a pain in the but than I was expecting.
