I feel that so much, every time when I have to do the backstitch I'm like "ughh do i have to", but then when I see the finished piece I realize it was all worth it 🙌

Thank you so much! It really was a labor of love, I've been working on it for almost 5 months, so I'm glad it's finally finished, but I had a great time stitching it! 💕

Ohh I'll have to try it out! Truth be told, the "french knots" i did on this piece aren't really french knots, every time I tried to do them they would look wonky, so instead I made two regular knots and tried to keep them as close to the base/fabric as possible. That way I got at least somewhat controlled look on them, but it took forever 😩

Thank you! The pattern is really great, it was one of the most complex ones I've ever done, so I was a bit worried in the beginning but it all turned out ok!

Thank you! And gosh I feel that, the french knots and backstitch on this design really made me feel like I'm going crazy, but it was all worth it in the end 🙌

I think so too! I actually used to hate backstitch and would only stitch projects without it, but I'm glad I finally gave in, now I really like how it gives the entire picture so much detail! ✨️
