Now in ten hours, one can do a lot of backstitching, and I did. I stitched around the border three times - once insice the gold, and then the in- and outside of the blue - and I backstitched allll these seashells! I also stitched around her tail and fin.
Now I only have two colours of backstitching left - the rocks and her hair, mostly. There are also some special instructions, like adding blending filament, gold and beads. We'll see if another ten hours will be enough to finish her, but stitching the shells certainly was the most laborous part of backstitching!

How gorgeous! I’m not crazy about doing the backstitching, but it makes such a difference.
Leonore: She is beautiful, i hate backstitching but know that in most designs they are needed.

Woohoo! Fantastic backstitching progress. She is looking wonderful.
So exciting that she's almost finished. The backstitching is really paying off!
Oh she's so close to done, and so beautiful
Wow! Ten hours of backstitching is an lot in one go, but what a difference it's made. Good luck with what will hopefully be your last rotation on her. :)
