I just must let you know how delighted I am with the 'Floss Lasso' anchoring technique! It has made work so much easier especially with the single stitches that one misses, and has to go back to insert only one stitch! I am working the Gerard van Spaendonck Still Life of flowers, and yes, the back was pretty difficult to start an odd stitch! Now, it's a piece of cake, most satisfactory!!!
