Take a stitch Tuesday
This is the double lock stitch. Instruction can be found at http://pintangle.com/2014/09/09/take-a-stitch-tuesday-129-and-130-lock-and-double-lock-stitch/ It isn't very different from the Lock stitch other than it is done on both sides of the the straight stitches. Mine looks a little messy. I think a thicker thread would make it look nicer.

Why not try it out in thicker thread and see if you like it better? On the other hand, the metallic thread on the shiny background looks great!
