Questions

I have a few questions. While working on my libra project, which is on 25 count fabric I've realized that some of my stitches aren't sitting right. I don't like to complete each stitch as I go along because it seems that if I do the stitches don't sit right. But I'm afraid that my stitches are going to slip behind the threads if I do half stitches across and than come back to finish them. I stitch where my bottom leg is from top left to bottom right, bottom right to top left and my top stitch is from top right to bottom left, bottom left to top right.

I go from 1 to 4, 2 to 3 or 4 to 1 and 3 to 2 when I'm completing one stitch. When I'm working half stitches across I go

1 to 6, 2 to 7, 3 to 8 for my bottom leg and 4 to 7, 3 to 6 and 2 to 5 to finish the cross. Is there another way to stitch where my stitches won't slip into the threads?
