Sometimes a travelling thread can look attractive,(although I try not to do it) I've seen some avant garde stitching really make a feature of this too.Cherry and Cinnamonhttp://www.cherryandcinnamon.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879238690623093246.post-40355901940061069492013-04-18T20:29:09.378+01:002013-04-18T20:29:09.378+01:00Done!

That's a really bad habit.

I admit I'm too lazy to care about things nobody will likely ever see and a mess back side has it's appeal, too.<br />It's also quite cool to see how different stitches look different each side. Sometimes stitches look chaotic on the front and totally symmetric in the back.<br />The only thing I never do is pulling the thread across the whole pattern in the back to continue stitching there.Annehttp://pumora.denoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879238690623093246.post-78907890916290791762013-04-16T15:32:19.165+01:002013-04-16T15:32:19.165+01:00I knot all the time!

And get stick for it from other crafters, but I'd rather do the boring part quick and do the fun part (the actual stitching) well on the side people will actually see :) Little Red Emo Hoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06411942188273035434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879238690623093246.post-86252417184576396252013-04-16T15:18:00.380+01:002013-04-16T15:18:00.380+01:00I love the wrong side of embroideries too.

I try not to worry too much about the back unless I think it's going to show through.dandelionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782916339520789136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879238690623093246.post-79709569276433953452013-04-16T14:17:41.380+01:002013-04-16T14:17:41.380+01:00Thanks for sharing this!

As a needlepoint novice, it's nice to see that talented embroiderers are not very worried about the backs! Takes a little pressure off!Sarahhttp://knityorkcity.comnoreply@blogger.com
