After a brief period of ignoring the cross stitch, I finally hunkered done and got the outline of the flowers, vines and birds completed! I know some of the backstitches weren't actually backstitches but I think it turned out pretty well. It definitely gave the leaves and birds more definition but I liked the non-outlined version too.
I also probably should have done the lazy daisies after the backstitch. I don't particularly think how they turned out. Still, I am proud of this little piece.
All that's left is to find a frame for it.
