When you're close to it you see fibres, unevennesses and mistakes that no-one else will ever notice :-)! But if it is noticeable from a distance, try winding some sticky tape around your finger sticky side out -- I like using the invisible tape, it's not so strongly sticky -- and dab all over the stitching, that'll pick up most of the fibred

I will try that. I started with a lint roller and it was too sticky so I didn't use that. It isn't noticeable from a distance, but I can see it and it bugs me, so I would like to get rid of it if possible.

Do you find it mostly on the black? On my dogs project all the black (so black browns/black blues as well I guess) have the fibers. :?
I was thinking it was just with it being dark and is probably the same on all stitching but not so noticeable unless you have alot of dark parts. :thinks:
Yes it's just on the dark colors. No one notices it but me, I guess because I am so close to it.

Love your dogs project, by the way.
