You can use 14 count Aida instead of 18 count, but the finished product will be smaller.
Yes, you can stitch over one on evenweave fabric. The key is to use a needle that is the same size or slightly larger than the thread you are using. This will prevent the thread from breaking and the fabric from tearing.
I prefer to cross stitch dark colors first and then fill in with the lighter colors. This allows me to get a feel for the pattern and get the darker colors in place before adding the lighter colors.
If you're not sure which size Aida cloth to buy for your project, don't worry! There's a simple way to figure it out. First, measure the area where you'll be stitching. Then, count the number of squares in that area. Each square is one stitch, so that's how many stitches you'll need. Now, take a look at the Aida cloth size chart. Find the size that has at least as many stitches as you need. That's the size Aida cloth you should buy!

The pricing was undoubtedly a deciding factor in my choice because I appreciate the enormous size. I used it to a sizable design I bought. The packaged cross stitch fabric that is often available and included with most patterns is smaller and would not have been suitable for the desired project. I'm overjoyed to have plenty leftover for additional cross-stitching.

This was purchased so I could create some little cross stitch patterns to offer in my Etsy shop. The cost was fair. The quality is excellent. They were really stiff when I first got them. For my designs, I chopped them in half. They become softer with use. It takes some effort to get them in a hoop since they are stiff, but once they are in, the hardness makes it quite simple to stitch through. I always wash and iron the finished items after sewing. The remaining stiffness is removed by washing them, and any creases from washing are removed by ironing. The final product is excellent. With this buy, I'm quite pleased.

I recently acquired this but haven't yet utilized it. Given how stiff it is for linen, freestyle embroidery on a hoop or other stretching tool is probably the greatest use for it. Since it is not even woven, it cannot be used for blackwork or numbered work. However, the cloth is gorgeous and has a variety of uses. Toss out the starch and sizing or try it directly from the box. Never a bad stitch is made. The sewer is there!

My utter disbelief at both the cost and the caliber. For 99 cents each, you won't find six 12x18-inch pieces of Aida cloth anywhere. Actually, I don't know why this place has negative reviews. If you've worked with Aida cloth frequently, you're probably aware of how stiff it may initially be. Unless you're using more expensive or premium brands of fabric. Therefore, it is unusual for Aida fabric to start off a little stiff before letting loose as you work with it. Because it performs better on my scroll bars, I would prefer to have my cloth a little stiff. The rigidity is a benefit for me because I sometimes frame my work as gifts for family. Being someone who sews a lot, I will be purchasing from this seller once again.

Why did I order this item if I don't sew or do needlepoint? This linen serves as the grill material for the ancient speakers I fix. Even though it rarely matches perfectly, it still looks excellent.Because of the way the cloth is wrapped, I took away one star. It is delivered with creases because it is folded. I've done my fair share of ironing, so I am aware that it's not a big issue. But darn it, I'm a man and I've got better things to do than search for the f****** iron!My life would be SO much easier if the merchant would just roll the fabric. I'm not even sure if my iron has a setting for linen!
If you're looking to make your Aida cloth softer, there are a few things you can do. One is to soak it in fabric softener for 20-30 minutes before washing. Another is to add a half cup of white vinegar to your washing machine when you wash the Aida cloth.
When using 14 count Aida, you will need to use two strands of floss. This will give you the best coverage and prevent the floss from fraying.
There is no right or wrong side to Aida cloth. It is a plain weave fabric, meaning the threads go over and under each other in a consistent pattern. The threads are also evenly spaced, which makes it easy to count and create even stitches.
There's no wrong way to cross stitch, as long as you're enjoying yourself and creating something beautiful! Some people like to follow patterns to the letter, while others prefer to improvise and let their creativity run wild. There are also those who like to mix and match, using a pattern for guidance but adding their own personal touches. Whatever your approach, the important thing is to have fun and relax while you're stitching.
There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to framing your cross stitch project. It is a personal preference. Some people prefer to frame their work with glass to protect it from dust and dirt, while others do not mind leaving it unprotected.
When it comes to choosing the right Aida fabric for your project, the two most popular options are 14 count and 16 count. So, which one should you use? Well, it really depends on your personal preference. If you want your stitches to be smaller and more delicate, then 14 count Aida is the way to go. However, if you prefer a slightly larger stitch, then 16 count Aida is a better option. Ultimately, it’s up to you to decide which count you prefer. Experiment with both and see which one you like best.
