50 shades of leather

For long time I wasn't happy with my stitching (the face of project would look great, but I wasn't happy with back) so I change my stitching , so I did this project to test myself and must say I am happy with my stitches now.

SORRY NO VIDEO FOR THIS PROJECT

Well, face side of project faces my right arm, so I go first with right needle then left needle above (before I was doing left needle below) and loop on face side ( I stitch away from me) I know it is a small thing but stitches look way better  hope this make sense.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot

Do you have a photo of a project before you made the change in your stitching? I would like to see the difference the small change made because it describe my method of stitching.

Hope that I will be able to explain , this is little test that I did to change my stitching, so there are 8 lines but only 4 stitching patterns that I did, (difference  is top 4 rows holes are in this direction /////, and bottom 4 are opposite) .

1-face needle first then back needle goes under plus loop on face side.

2-face ,back under, no loop

3-face, back above, plus loop

4-face, back above, no loop

So ,for me number 3 looks best, (no matter  what direction holes are) stitching looks identical on both sides, before I was doing number 1( face would look great but I was not happy with back)

Hope that you understand me, and that this helps.
