Thank you for this video. Very helpful. After 30 years of not cross stitching (more of a quilter), I didn’t realize how many different types of fabrics there are now. Can’t get use to the linen/even weave. I will just stick to Aida 16 and 18 ct for now. Linen has too many threads for these old eyes. I look forward to more of your very helpful and informative videos.

I stitch in hand. I roll the fabric on the left side to hold in my left hand. It's so easy to roll it in or out depending on where I'm stitching. It's not great for large pieces but works for small and medium projects.
@anniewil1027 жыл бұрын
Great video! A couple of points. Hardanger is not only done on 22 count but on other counts as well (not on Aida). Most Hardanger I have done is on 28 count. The weave on WDW fabric is looser and makes it very difficult to work with. That is probably why you don't like it (I don't either). The problem with using two strands on 36 Ct is when the piece is completed, it is going to look very heavy. However, everyone should stitch what makes their heart happy.

First of all, what the hell is with the mine ant in the middle of winter!? Second I love the look of laguna but my eyes aren't great. I assumed the snobby stitchers always trended to making the tiniest stitches possible. I'm not a fan of 14 count Aida because it seems so "big". When I do I usually use 3 strands. Right now I'm working on a 16 count and stitches are noticeably smaller. You gave me the permission to do 2 over 2 on Lugana because it made sense! The stitches are bigger but the fabric is still so smooth and tight.

The holes on evenweave and linen are smaller so some people like that look more. Plus if you have fractional stitches to do in a pattern, like three-quarter stitches or a quarter stitch, it is easier to do on evenweave than aida, as there are more holes in evenweave.

Thank you so much for replying and given me such a great explanation. If I may bother you again, how does one know which fabric count to use? I am about to start a Van Gogh pattern, which calls for 14 count Aida, so should I stick to that or consider evenweave in smaller count, like 20 or smaller (although terrible for my eyes)? Thanks so much.

You could try to spray that area with hairspray and then try to gently rub the magic marker away. I got a pen mark out of a piece of fabric this way before. And then I washed the fabric to get the hairspray out. If that doesn't work, you will probably have to start over.

Dunja Witt I don't know exactly what that linen was. Belfast and cashel are both good choices for linen. They are not stiff like that.
Thanks for great information!

I did a beading tutorial video. I use size 10 beading needles for beading. As for cross stitch, 14 count aida or 28 count evenweave I use size 24 tapestry needle. For 16 or 18 count aida or 32 or 36 count evenweave I use size 26 tapestry needle, and then for the higher counts like 20 count aida or 40 count linen I would use a size 28 tapestry needle.
What is the best way to dye evenweave fabric?? Love your videos!!!

Tammy Bunge I honestly don't know. I have never dyed my own fabric.
Thank you for this video. But.....I'm addicted to purple so can you tell me the maker and color of your nail polish? It is gorgeous. Also, could you do a video on the cuts of fabric? Is it the same as say, quilting fabric? Thanks.

Dakota Zerum Jobelan is actually a fairly dense fabric. As far as I can tell, the most see thru fabric is any type of linen.
Loved this video. Where do you find different colors of Lugana?

Sheila Banks 123 stitch has different colors of Lugana. I buy hand dyed fabric so those are all different colors.
Such great info!
Danielle, I stitch on 28 ct evenweave. What size needle would you recommend for that sized fabric? Thanks! Loved this video! It was very helpful. Elizabeth

TheStitchinNurse If stitching 2 over 2 I would use size 24 needle. If stitching 1 over 1 I would use a size 28 needle.

Stitcherista, thank you! I love using size 24 needles, but for some reason I thought I "had" to use size 26 for 28 ct evenweave. I "heard" it "stretched the hole out." lol Anyway thanks for the advice!
Great info.

cute little stitch you could stick with 32 count. Or try the 28 count.
I like 22ct hardanger 1 over 1
I hate fractional stitches on Aida - it never looks right.
How do you get your fabric so tight/taut on you QSnap? I really struggle and often it is just too loose!

I am not sure I understand your question completely. If you look at a site like 1-2-3 Stitch, they carry every different type of fabric there is and you can click on different sizes to see the prices.

Stitcherista I missed a couple of words on my question. What size is the fabric for those prices?
@Stitcherista

Do you mean the prices of the small cuts I used to demonstrate in the video? If so I have no clue. I think they were anywhere from 4 to 7 per piece. But like I said, you can go to 123 stitch and look up aida, evenweave, linen and click on different sizes to see prices.
