does anyone have a good idea of how to do embroidery on bandanas that look neatly on the opposite side? Mary Jane has a picture of one in either her book or one of the magazines and i was wanting to do some for presents. however, so far, my back side looks awful and i really don't want to start and stop 100 times on each bandana???? |

Jani, it sounds like quite the project...I would love to see pictures too! My embroidery always looked messy and I was envious of people who would keep theirs looking so neat on the opposite side. :)

I did one of those bandana's turned out great. Took some time.
I did jump across on short areas, but otherwise I cut and knotted alot.
One thing when you wear it, it is usually folded over and you won't see it.

I embroidered 8 flour sack towels, and knotted the ends of the threads. However, this set I'm doing now, I carefully stitch over the backside thread (I leave a little when I first full through). If any small ends stick out, I cut them off. I still knot when I do my french knots. When I end, I pull through the backside, and with my needle, work it under my past stitches and then cut the thread off. Hope this helps.
