The back side is a thin black velvet that resembles light weight Ultrasuede. I am quite happy with it although I could have done a better job on the roof. Stitching it to resemble the photos wasn't as successful as I'd hoped. Somehow the angle made the stitches look odd. I would have done better to have ignored the photos and do stitches to fill a triangular space instead of doing stepped satin stitches. But that only matters to me and it is a lesson I'll remember the next time I stitch a building.
Hope you like it!

Jane,
I think it has turned out amazingly well considering all the difficulties that went with this project and I think that we have all learned a thing or two from this experiment.
The recipient of this gift should be very happy with it.

Like it? Love it! The Tardis turned out great, Jane. Your niece is so lucky!

Great job. I think it looks fantastic.
I love this! You neice is so lucky to have an aunt who not only stitches for her, but does something special like this that is a one of a kind. Great job, and looking forward to your next project.
