Since my last post on this owl embroidery, I have taken out the back stitching I used on the leaves and switched to a blanket stitch. I like it so much better. Filling in the entire leaf with lines of back stitch were making the leaf too dense and lumpy looking. To me, this blanket stitch looks just right!
I have quite a few projects going at the moment, it is fun to have a variety of subjects to stitch!
