Stitching Tips for 14-Count Aida

For the best results, I recommend:

• Using 2 strands of embroidery floss for nice, full coverage.
• Starting in the center of your fabric so your design is perfectly positioned.
• Completing all of your stitches in the same direction for a clean, professional look.
• Pressing your finished piece from the back with a warm iron once you’re done.

These simple tips help your finished project look neat and polished. If this is your first project, here is a great video to get you started.
