Backstitch question...
Posted: Wed Jun 10, 2009 4:27 pm
Hello everybody!
I'm new to cross stitching and to the forum!
My design has two symbols in one square. I know this means that each symbol represents a ¼ stitch. What I’m a little confused about is the backstitch running through the square.
In the map this backstitch looks like a thin grey line. What I’m not sure about is this:
In my stitiching key there is a backstitich symbol which is a thick grey line. I'm not sure whether the thin grey line running through the double symbol square represents this thick grey line symbol in the key or is it another colour every time depends on the dominant colour of the area and the pattern it’s suppose to make…
I hope i'm clear....
Please help...
Thanks!!!!!
