Backstitch is a pain to do but it brings the picture to life!
Thank you, Wendy. Actually, I quite like backstitch...
I like backstitch too!! I love the way it gives definition to the stitched piece. I'm doing a Celtic Cushion at the moment and there's so much backstitch I'm having to do it as I finish each panel or I'd go quite batty! http://www.stitchdirect.com/shopWebSite ... lu=118006C" target="_blank
If you enlarge this picture you'll see what I mean!

I would like to finish it without putting it down now but I am afraid I will still have to stop for stitching some more small presents for friends. Anyway, I like those, too.
