With one of my finishes I wanted to share to you the fantastic example it is for the difference backstitching can make! Out there on the web I always see/hear a lot of complaining about backstitch. I actually quite enjoy it and it must makes such an amazing difference on a piece!!! Its like focusing your camera!

Great finishes... I do love Michael Powell stuff :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your finishes! That last photo shows how dramatic back stitching can be very well.
ReplyDeleteI kind of like backstitching. It certainly DOES make a big difference in your little piece.
ReplyDeleteLove the little snowman guy. He's adorable.
Wonderful finishes!! Wow! the back stitching made a huge difference. I do it whenever the pattern calls for it. Now i definitely will!
ReplyDeleteLove your finishes, Dani, especially Rudolph. The Michael Powell is a cute one. I may have to dig it out of my stash and stitch it.
ReplyDeleteWow! Congrats on getting so many smalls accomplished!! Great job!

Great happy dances!
ReplyDeleteNot tired of the iMessages... Yet lol
You are right about the back stitching. I may be one of those that complain about it, but I do get how it makes a project :)
It's amazing what some backstitch can do. Great finishes:)
ReplyDeleteThe Michael Powell is so beautiful and well done completing one of your April goals.
ReplyDeleteGreat finishes Dani, the Michael Powell one is gorgeous
ReplyDeleteWhat really cute finishes! I cannot believe that a bit of backstitch can make SO much difference! Wow! I will try not to moan ever again :)
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely! Backstitching certainly does make a difference, but it can also drive you mad. I'm doing the backstitching on a Tatty Teddy at the moment and I don't know if it's the thickness of the fabric or something, but I find it really hard. Other projects, like a Pooh I just finished, it's really easy and soothing.
ReplyDeleteWhat cute pieces. Those gift tags could really dress up a package. And I'm a huge Michael Powell fan, back stitch and all.
ReplyDeleteOw my very cute pieces.. Love them!!!
ReplyDeleteHave fun stitching
And it's not just the smalls that benefit from back-stitching! Can you imagine a Teresa Wentzler faerie or a Dragon Dreams dragon without backstitching?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all your smalls finishes
Lots of lovely finishes!!! Backstitching indeed can't make a lot of difference!
ReplyDeleteWow, that backstitching does make all the difference in the world!! Everything looks so cute, Dani :)
ReplyDeleteGreat finishes. And I agree about the back stitching. :)
ReplyDeleteThose two pictures should be in the dictionary next to "backstitching". =) Congrats on all the finishes...I love that little snowman! He's adorable!!
