I like to finish the backstitch as I go because then I can see the picture better and if I miss some stitches in between :$

csc0312 posted at 7-28-2009 06:54

you are right too......because backstitches always make the work more outstanding and beautiful.......:)

Hamsteren09 posted at 8-25-2009 10:18

Yes, only metallic floss. I don't use beads on this Mira.

sarah posted at 8-25-2009 21:00

Hamsteren09 posted at 8-26-2009 14:53

No, just normal cross stitch with metallic threads. I want to have flat surface.
