The poll asking whether you always do your background first or last, or if it depends on the design, is over. 131 people voted, but this time of year 1200-1400 folks a day visit Blog, so I am not sure if we can apply what a bit over ten percent of us said to all stitchers.
The results? Of 131 respondents, 76 (that's 58 percent) always do their background last while 45 people (34 percent) say it depends on the canvas And bringing up the rear are 10 folks like me, who always do the background first. That's a bit over 7 percent of the total responding.
Thanks for answering my question. As I said before, I don't think there is a right or wrong way to approach the background first/last question, but I do think those of us who always work the same way are wired differently than those who take the sensible approach and look at how the canvas is designed before choosing which area to stitch first and last.
