  STARTING AND ENDING THE THREAD
ON THE BACK SIDE
 

Never, never use knots!

Knots create lumps when your hard work is framed. Also, the stitches may have tight pulls from the knot being tightened.

When starting a thread, leave a tail that can be stitched down by the next couple of stitches.

For the back side, the proper way is to wrap thread around the tail. Once the thread is tied under several stitches, you can cut the tail off.
The front side. This method is very easy once you get used to it. It seems natural.
When stopping at the end of your thread, weave the thread through several times or until you feel the end is secure enough to cut off.
