No, mine are not the same on the back as on the front. I do try to keep them even, but do not always succeed. As I quilt with a few other ladies on the same quilt, I don't worry about that, just so the stitches go all the way through to the back and that I don't have toe catchers! :?

I think my stitches look better on the back. I have no problem using colored thread and a solid color fabric on the back. My favorite kind of quilting is white on white whole cloth. I have done one queen size one and lots of smaller peices. I wouldn't bother handquilting if I didn't want it to be seen.

Beats the heck out of me!!! I have often wished I could quilt from the back side so the stitches on top would look better! :lol:

LOL I like your answer Marge.
