Whenever I stitch on black fabric, I always have a sheet of white paper on my lap.
It makes a big difference. It is easier to see the holes in the fabric.
Also, I do not stitch on black at night.

many thanks everyone for replying back, I am trying to use a light under the stitching although it is helpful I have to bend a lot ...ahhh!! all  that we do for stitching...

I use the lamp method. I stitch as I normally do but have someone place the lamp a distance from me but behind the piece. The light shows the holes behind and no strain.  Post time 2012-10-21 00:37

White material underneath it on your lap - or a lightbox type light underneath it.
