What is the front or backside of a punch needle embroidery project?

Punch Needle Embroidery is a hand tufting technique that is traditionally used to make rugs. As such the flat side of your work is considered the backside of your work, and the loopy side the good side. But in modern punch needle embroidery you can see artists using both the flat and the loopy side as the front side of their work, and they may actually mix up punching from both sides of the fabric to create depth. The flat side is typically better if you want to show clear lines. But the softness of the loopy side surely has an attraction as well.
