YES! Ive been doing that, too, the running stitching under other stitches. But this pattern has over 100 colours and it gets difficult! When carrying my stitches vertically I also wrap it around existing stitches every couple of stitches so it doesnt bulge out too much...

I think im the same as a lot of other people, as long as there are no knots and you cant see lines of thread from the from im not overly fussed as once framed no one will see :lol
I am such an amateur at the whole thing that if I can get a piece finished, I dont worry about the back. As I get better at it, Ill think about the back of the work. But yours is beautiful!
Honestly, if your framing the work, no one will ever see the back so dont fret too much. I try to keep it relatively neat for my own sanity, as it can be hard to thread through the back if it gets too thick. Just make sure you dont have any knots, the loop start is tremendous for this.
Waterlillie I have been stitching for years and the best advice I was given is to make sure you always cross your stitches in the same direction and use an even tension. Dont worry too much about the back of your work as when the project is finished the back will be covered up.
