Lockdown Sal a finish and a start.

So side one is finished with the last of the backstitching completed, and side two is started. 





This time I am working from the outside in.  The middle just felt too busy and my eyes did not want to see the separate symbols.  I may have a better eye for the pattern next week.

Funnily enough this empty square looks so much bigger than the completed one.  It is of course a trick of the eye (the count has been checked and double checked) I am sure it will stop looking so big once it is not so empty.

It is an optical illusion I see it too that the outer edge second side does look bigger.... the first side does looks superb though.

The backstitch really does bring out all the details. Looking forward to seeing the second side grow.
