my back always looks terrible!! :):):):)
anyway I only stitch things to be framed (you dont see the back) or filled (same)
Great back. I have tried but it has never looked like yours. I do like the tips your friend gave you and I will try that on my next one. Thanks for sharing!

I have just tried really hard to adhere to the rule that nothing goes diagonal in the back, I will go out of my way andplan out my "route"... I think for my next project Im going to try to keep all the lines in the back vertical only... It takes sometime...but I think it will be worth it in the end :D I really want to have it look like Megys! You could barely tell the difference between her front and back except for one looks more vibrant andcovered! That is amazing.
I think you are doing a great job by now really
the back is perfect ideal for works such as curtains and lamps. where the light that passes through the embroidery highlights the "defects" of paassaggio of the wires on the back. for me in a panel, the important thing is that the right is perfect for the back ...... Good job!
As far as my dark material concern, I worry that I will have problems seeing where to put the needle in. However I have seen some really good tips on using it like using a light underneath in addition to above it.
Recently I worked on some darker purple, however it was 14 count so it was easier to see. One of my next projects is a ladybug pin cushion on a higher count red fabric.

Hi Yenilaia ..
Congrats for your first project you are very courageous its a big pattern and dark c ...
Wow, this is amazing!
That is an amazingly perfect back!!Both the books look incredible.My backs look like something the cat drug in and the dog wouldnt touch :)I guess maybe my smaller projects dont look quite that bad, but they are still bad....if it has confetti....its nothing but a horrible mass of threads!
I make sure I secure my ends all the same direction <----------- and leave some in case I need to pull it taught or fix something later. Once its all finished, if its not a framed piece, I can trim them, but the back always look a tad messy, never beautiful like that flora piece shown! I wish there was a video tutorial.
