Just FWIW and IMHO (of course), the mirror image is a very valuable tool.
Several of the stitches that sling over to one side just don't go the right
way for me. For example, when doing a blanket or appliqué stitch, sometimes
you come to a place where you have to pivot on a layered piece. Often, it
is simply more convenient to work with the stitch mirrored instead of on
default. Clear as mud? Polly

have the SE.

Thanks, I've come across a few favourable reviews of the Sapphires
and the harp space is very tempting. Just depends on what DH is
willing to let me spend...
