I am a returning cross-stitcher from the 80's and 90's. This was very helpful!! Got me caught up with materials and trends

Thanks, Kimberly & team... I found out I can add the Cross Stitch Calculator to my home page... a choice in the upper right hand corner (on my phone), select the 3 dots to see the choice...Add to home screen.

I love that there are so many choices nowadays! They’re beautiful! When I began cross stitching 30 years ago, it was almost “what shade of white?” 😂

One awesome thing about Aida is how much faster I can stitch over any other cloth. Thanks for sharing!

I love this new “all about” series! I love to learn, so getting deeper knowledge of this craft is super fun and interesting to me!!

Wonderful video! This will be a great series👏👏👏. You sure have beautiful hands!

Excellent, and very helpful, presentation, Kimberly! Thank you to you and all FQS employees who helped you prepare. Superb team work!

Thank you for this very helpful information...and thank you Fat Quarter Shop for the very best customer service I have ever encountered

Love, love, love this video Kimberly! You explained the differences in brands, colors and effects so clearly. I also love that you showed the 5 best sellers and your top five favorites. I’m looking forward to next month on evenweave and linen. Thanks for all you do for the cross stitch community! Your best advice ever is to do what you like, fabric choice, color, etc. Though, I do always like to hear your opinion!

I prefer Aida and I use 14, 16, and 18. I prefer the stiffer brands like Zweigart, Wichelt, and Charles Craft. I have never had any problems with Charles Craft and they have really pretty colors for a great price.

Great information! Excited for the next topic! Thanks for another great video!

Beautiful video podcast…best wishes for 2023❤❤❤❤

Thank you, Kimberly, you did a great job explaining all about Aida and the different types, whether it be hand-dyed or printed or brands. I do enjoy stitching on 14 count Aida but some pieces such as samplers, which I really love, etc. become so large in size that I had to learn to stitch on different counts so they would be manageable for framing regarding size. Thanks again!!

Thank you for doing this. Loved the topic! One of your best Stitchy Talks!! Looking forward to the even weave discussion and hope there is lots of input from Cheryl about the linen for it.

It will be so nice to have this video to refer back to! I stitch on everything but prefer Aida. Thank you for the great info!

Thanks so much, Kimberly! I learned so much about the beautiful fabrics we stitchers have to use in our needlework! You’re the best!❤

This was a very informative video - Thank You! I'm wondering if you have ever considered selling a sample pack of the large manufacturer's colors (Wichelt, Zweigert)? It is probably too labor intensive to put together but it sure would be wonderful to have!

I would love a swatch card.

I have always used 14 count Aida like you. Thank you for all the information today. I started criss stitching in the 80's and yes Aida has come a long way. I have a few colors that I like to use but since I have started watching different Flosstubes I am starting to use more color. Have a great day.

As usual. This was very useful. I’m an Aida stitcher and love all the options you provide. Hugs from Canada.

EXCELLENT!! One of your best videos

Great informatio I'm an Aida stitcher my favorite is 16 count but hard to find So I stitch mostly 14 I plan to starting buying my AIDA from FQS I'm on a tight budget and have been using Hobby Lobby which is okay but I purchased a piece of the 14 Ct Blackboard and loved it what a difference.

Kimberly thank you for this video. I have been stitching for 40 years now and you answered so many questions I have had about fabric.

Love my aida!! 💕 Your sweater is beautiful!! 😊 LOVE FQS!!! 🤍🤍

Thank you so very much for doing this video. I was just about to try other fabrics types; however, you have reassured me that Aida is what I am comfortable with and it’s okay. I was feeling pressure to try linen.

Great info - I loved the comparisons of the different brands

Great video! Thanks for providing the information of the different brands.

Thanks Kimberly for explaining it so well

Your sweater is so pretty and you wear it well.

Thankyou for such a professional presentation as always. It’s a pleasure to watch.

Thank you for the informative livestream !

Such a wonderful informative video! Thanks FQS--this really helped with color differences plus the "hand" from Brand to Brand. Can't wait for the next one.

As always, excellent video and information! Thank you for all you do!

Very informative. I learned a lot and have stitched for 35 years.

I'm new to cross stitch so this was very helpful.

Very informative! I really enjoyed this! I took notes! 😁

Thank you for a very informative video!!!!

That was a very informative video. I stitch with both Aida and linen so I am looking forward to the video next month. I do not have a needlework shop near me so I love your shop. Customer service is exceptional.

Because of your generosity in making these detailed videos (I've also viewed the one on linen...) I will definitely be making a cross stitch purchase from your shop. (all of my previous purchases have been quilting related).

Excellent content, very informative! Thank you for clearly discussing Aida variations.

Hi Kimberly. Thanks for this great info! I could listen about cross stitch stuff forever!

Very informative. Thanks so much for doing this.

This was great and so helpful. Thank you!

Excellent video. I like learning about the different Aida fabric and looking forward to the next one on linens and evenweaves.

Oh, my goodness! This was such a great informative video, Kimberly. Thank you so much. I took copious notes throughout your presentation and will store them in with my material as a reference tool. I've also used your Stitch Calculator and love it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I love 14 count and I have a hard time with linen fabric. Enjoyed your talk about 14 count. Walk in Peace.

Great video to keep! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great overview- thanks so much!

Yankees you Kimberly for this valuable fabric information

Thank you so much for this video! I am an Aida stitcher and proud of it! ❤ 16 count is my favorite. It was great to learn about the different brands of fabric.

Super informative video! I really enjoyed it and I look forward to all of the Floss tube videos FQS puts out!

Kimberly! This video was so informative and I can’t wait for the next one when you talk about the other fabrics! Thank you so much!!!❤

Very informative. Thank you for doing this video.

Thank you so much ! This was very informative! 😊

This video was amazing! I learned a ton! I would love to see a notions for cross stitch that make things easier and/or more efficient.

Thank you so much, Kimberly! I thoroughly enjoyed your video. You explained everything so clearly and covered all the points and questions. I wish I could buy from FQS more often and feel so bad that I don't - it's just the currency exchange rate that makes it hard. Thank you so much to you and your team for your wonderful videos and amazing website which I love, love, love!

I found this very informative. It is wonderful to know the biggest sellers as well so you can put them in your stash for upcoming projects from the designers with Fat Quarter Shop.

Thank you Aida 😊

Great information. So helpful.

Thank you for this video! This information is so important

Thank you! I’m an Aida stitcher & really enjoyed this. Looking forward to next month’s talk on evenweave & linen.

Kimberly, this was so informative! Thank you very much! I stitch on Aida and I love it!❤

I like 28 count, but I started on Aida and I still enjoy. I’m trying 36 count and it’s a struggle. Yay for Aida❤

Thank you, great video, very helpful x

Very helpful information. Thank you so much.

Great info. Thanks

Lots of great info! FYI… the stitch calculator is fabulous! I use it ALL the time!!

Learned alot. I am in your aida club. Love it. Thank you and God bless you.

Thanks so much for this video. Very helpful.

Excellent video, thank you so much!!!!!!!

I just used a fancy print from Charles craft for Heartfelt and it looks amazing. It all depends on the design and colors you put on it.

Fabulous video, so much great information!! I'm sure I will be referring back to the video and your notes often!! If you put all this info into a booklet or project card, I'd buy it!!

Would love to see behind the scenes on how hand dyed floss is made.

Thank you for doing this video!! It was very informative!! I’m a new stitcher and love learning as much as I can. Happy stitching.

Thank u for all of the tips❣️

This is a great video! Thanks for explaining the differences of Aida you carry. Looking forward to next month's video telling about linen/evenweave.

Wow! Great video,thanks

Thank you for all that information. Was so helpful and was great to see the different kinds of Aida.

Thank you that was so informative I love 14and16 ct they are easy for me to see great job ❤️

This videos is amazing! So much great information and was very helpful! Ty Kimberly and team❤

Fellow 14 ct fan here!!! Thank you so much for this info! Definitely saving this for future reference!

I love this video I am a aida stitcher

Thanks Kimberly! Really enjoyed this. I'm a 14 aida girl and found this very informative. :)

You can wash your Aida before stitching if you want it softer.

This is such a great video! Can't wait for the February video because I want to start on evenweaves.

Great reference video thanks

Thank you for the information about Aida and shaming for using Aida. I have tried to use other material and I just can't see it. It was a struggle I didn't enjoy it. I like all the stitch count in Aida. I have started ironing my Aida before stitching it seems to help with the stiffness. Thanks!

Good information. Thank you!

Thank you for this video! As a new stitcher this was a great help!

Very informative Video!

Very helpful. I prefer a stiffer Aida and this just saved me from buying something I won’t like. Also thank you for sticking up for Aida. I’m a pretty experienced stitcher and I tried even weave and linen. Hated both of them. I’m sticking to Aida.

My favorite Aida is Cosmo…I love that you carry it and I hope you still plan to since you didn’t discuss it here? 🤞🤞

Thank you so much for this informative video, looking forward to next week's.
