Would you stitch the white background on white Aida?
My next project is going to be a full coverage, 312x400 for a total of 125,200 stitches. 45,976 of those stitches are plain white thread. I'm using white Aida. Would you do all the white stitches or just leave them out? It's 17x22 inches on 18 count, so that works out to around 23 skeins of white floss. I'm inclined to say the heck with that, but I want it to look right, too. I plan to mat and frame when done. Opinions?
