I do my backstitching and beading at the end too.As some one else said, I love seeing how it all sort of comes more alive and looks more finished to me when I do that.Backstitching goes relatively quick, so it doesn't bother me.Seems if I do it as I go along, it gets tucked in or covered by other stitches or something always goes wrong, doesn't have as clean of lines.

Tambien lo dejo para el final del bordado, y si no me gusta demasiado el color oscuro que tenga lo cambio por otro color que realce tambien el trabajo, pero que no destaque tanto.:)
