I am stitching a pattern that has a motif that has an area of long straight stitches in the design. It's Chatelaine's Greek Mandala, the windmills. They looked fine when I stitched them, but now, many months later, the stitches have gone slack and will obviously have to be redone. But how can I stop it from happening again? A lot of these stitches go out into empty space, so there's no way to tack them on the back.
Any ideas?
