tips for backstitching

my tip for backstitching when doing a big project dont leave it till last to do do it as you go along it is much easier

does any one else have any tips when it comes to backstitching ?

yes very tedious but if you do your backstitching after you finish a section if makes the end result so much easier.   most pieces do not look finished if the backstitching is not done

Es más fácil hacerlo sobre la marcha, pero las que disfrutamos haciéndolo,a veces preferimos hacerlo al final y ver cómo poco a poco va quedando completado el diseño.

I find backstitching kind of tedious, so I’ll start another project and switch between the two

I have always wondered what was best.Thanks for the information.

I like to do it at the end and watch the design "pop"

I try to do the same, but sometimes I forget.And then I regret it when I have to do them all at the end.
I do the same with beads, by the way.

I hate back stitching :@, probably why I prefer HAEDs :D

I agree with you, Sam. I wait until the end and then it never gets finished.

I tried to backstitch before stitching, I don't have to say it didn't work very well, right? :lol
But, I mostly do the same.

I always try and do my backstitching as I go along as I too hate it.Hadn't thought of doing the beads that way, but I will in future as I hate those too.Thanks for the tip

Backstitching has never really bothered me. I love seeing it all come "alive" with just that little bit of extra thread... ^_^
