Oh see this is another problem I am having... I seem to be getting the stitches uniform (for the most part) on the side Im working on but the opposite is not so uniform. They blend in much better on the front of the quilt so I am quilting from the back as it is black with the white thread. Any tricks on this one?? For the life of me I cant use a thimble and my fingers have became callous so I have a natural thimble on my thumb and index finger HA!
