Frequently asked questions

What does “count” (ct) mean?

The number of blocks or threads per inch (2.54 cm). The higher the count, the smaller the finished embroidery.

Aida or linen?

Aida has marked blocks and is easier to count. Linen and evenweave are stitched over two threads and give a finer finish.

How much fabric do I need?

Divide the stitch count of the design by the stitches per cm of your fabric and add a 5–8 cm margin on each side for framing.
