The Backside: Stop.
Remember last week when I asked you to let me know your questions, challenges, hurdles, mountains, molehills, difficulties, and what-have-yous that might cause you frustration when you embroider?
I received a lot of emails about the backside of embroidery. It kind of made me sad, because it tells me that people are adding undue stress to their creative projects that are supposed to be stress relievers.
So today, I’m going on record to say this, once and for all:
STOP.
Please stop stressing about the Back of your Embroidery.
Now, I’m not saying “Don’t ever think about the back of your embroidery.”
Rather, I’m saying “Don’t worry so much about the back of your embroidery that it becomes a crippling, stressful factor for you.”
Pull up a chair, pour yourself a nice cup of something warm and soothing, and let’s have a good old-fashioned natter about this topic. Hopefully, we can put to rest some misconceptions and give you some general guidance to relieve your anxieties over the back of your embroidery.
