How strong is this stitch by itself compared to backstitching? Also, this stitch WITH felling compared to backstitching? Can you tell I have some sort of unreasonable aversion to backstitching? I'll blind hem, blanket, buttonhole or english stitch all day long - but when it comes to back stitching... blech.
