  Can you tell me what you’re stitching on? Looks like a scroll but smaller?

  I noticed you cutting your thread on top of the fabric, are you using the pin stitch to end your thread? Enjoyed you going over the motifs in the North American Sampler!

  You can use a lightbox or a piece of white paper under under the fabric, good lighting and possibly magnifying glasses.

  I’m a 35 year old metalhead dad who has become quite smitten with the very chill idea of cross stitching. CCS - and your videos specifically, Ford - have been my intro to learning. It’s all a bit overwhelming, but I’m looking forward to ordering my first kit and having a go. Thanks for all you folks do.

  Haven't tried blackwork but love your videos and learnt a lot. Just wondered why you used the hoop opposite to usual? IE upside down, working from the back not the front. Thanks 😊

• 
  @SonovaStitchКүн бұрын

  Hi there! Thanks for the question. I call this stitching "in the well" (as opposed to "on the drum") and I do it because it helps keep the front of the project clean, and makes it easier to access the back of the project to bury my thread ends, etc, especially when working close to the boundary of the hoop. Thanks for watching!

  What I was really hoping to find and cannot is how to wash mounted cross stitch that has been in it's frame for 15 years or more, and needs to be cleaned. I guess I'm going to have to take it completely apart and start it all over again and mount it when it is dry. There doesn't seem to be any info on how to do it in place, in the unglassed frame.

• 
  @CaterpillarCrossStitchКүн бұрын

  To ensure a proper clean you would be best to unmount, wash and remount.

  Thanks for the tips on repairing mistakes. I was wondering what to do if I’ve put stitches where no stitches should go? When I remove the unwanted stitches, then the holes in the fabric are larger than if no stitches had been there. Please help!

• 
  @CaterpillarCrossStitch5 күн бұрын

  As you continue to work on your product the holes should naturally relax into their original position - if they do not, a gentle wash after completing the project should do the trick!

• 
  @kimgraham735 күн бұрын

  I did try stitching on wood on a Sulky ornament, it took me 30 hours and not that big. It was very difficult to get the strands through the holes and couldn't use the loop method as it was 4 strands and too many to get through easily, broke many needles, tried several types and sizes. Didn't work well and I wasn't the only one who had problems with it.

• 
  @CaterpillarCrossStitch5 күн бұрын

  To use the loop method on 4 strands, that would create 8 strands. If you had wanted to use the loop method on your project, you would take 2 strands folded.

• 
  @andreamacleod11275 күн бұрын

  I joined a ross-stitching community of Facebook and someone had posted a picture of their WIP with this method. I was utterly confused cause they had like 20 different colours happening, and I could never do that. I'm a "one colour at a time" girl.

  Really enjoyed this video. I learned that Catherine of Aragon was the catalyst for the use of black work, and was used as a substitute for the lack of lace at that time by mirroring the intricate details. I love the clean look of the work and recently completed a StarWars piece based on this. ❤
