[message] => So, this stitch looks the same as a full stitch in for example a HEAD? Don't you see that the stitch is different when you are looking at the project? (I want to start with a HEAD, and maybe this stitch is something I would choose then instead of a full stitch)
Do you maybe have a photo of the full project with this stitch? (hope you don't mind)

If you use a high enough count fabric the stitches are so small that it is very hard to tell the difference. Unfortunately I personally have no finished peices use this technique yet but I did pull some photos from the HAED BB. I have also seen a finished piece in person and I couldn't tell the difference until my nose was nearly touching the glass.

[message] => An even more reliable 1/2 stitch to avoid distortion is basketweave.
You stitch a 1/2 cross in the normal way (up the hole furthest from the last stitch and down the whole closest), but instead of going along in a horizontal (or vertical) line, you work diagonally on the fabric, you get excellent coverage and the pattern that forms on the back is what gives it the name basketweave stitch.

(needless to say it will only reduce distortion if you actually use a frame - unlike the demo film!)

[message] => Thanks a lot for the tip. I have been doing my half stitches the wrong way and yes, my fabric gets a bit distorted. Your way is the needlepoint stitches. 2 questions: Do you use a frame when doing tent stitch? Does it use up a lot more thread due to the long returns?
Thanks.
