How To Cross Stitch
What is Cross Stitch ?
Cross-stitch is one of the oldest forms of embroidery and can be found all over the world. Many folk museums show examples of clothing decorated with cross-stitch, especially from continental Europe and Asia.
Cross Stitch is a relaxing, and fun activity. It is one of the easiest and most popular stitching techniques used today. It compromises a series of Xs, which are stitched on a piece of fabric to create a design. Each individual cross stitch is made up of two diagonal stitches; a bottom stitch and a top stitch that together form an X.
There are two types of cross stitches, counted cross stitch and stamped cross stitch.
•Counted Cross Stitch is the most popular cross-stitch and requires the stitcher to refer to a chart, which indicates where the Xs should be placed on the fabric, and what color they should be.
•Stamped Cross Stitch has the design already printed on the fabric, indicating where the Xs should be placed.
Cross Stitch Fabric Count
•Fabric counts are referred to by naming the number of threads or squares per inch and adding -count. Thus, fabric with 11 squares-per-inch is called 11-count fabric.
•Common fabric counts of Aida range from 11 to 18 squares per inch.
Strands of floss needed for different size fabrics
•Floss comes in 6-ply. This means there are 6 separate strands or plies in the floss. You need to separate these strands and then use the right amount to stitch your stitches.
•The following chart gives you the basic amounts of floss strands/plies needed for each size of fabric:
How To Frame or Display Cross Stitch
When youve finished off a beautiful masterpiece and want to display it... here are some ideas:
Bookmarks - Any of the smaller -- long, narrow projects can be used as bookmarks:
Fold the unfinished edges over and hot glue onto the back side of the project
Cut a piece of card stock, poster board, thin cardboard or felt to the same size or a smidge larger than your project
Hot glue this onto the back side of the project, covering the unfinished edges and wrong side of the work
Cards - any of the smaller rectangular or square projects can be made into greeting cards
Fold the unfinished edges over and temporarily pin onto the back side of the project
Fold a piece of card stock in half (in our diagrams, the orange is the front and the yellow the inside so its easier to follow along, but cardstock is typically the same color on both sides)
Lightly trace your cross stitch project onto the inside the folded cardstock
Try to make sure its centered
If youd like to print a title on your card, you can squiggle the project down a bit to leave room
Set aside your cross stitch
Use an exacto knife to cut a hole out of your card stock where you traced... just in the half you did your tracing, not through both sides.
Unpin the unfinished edges of your cross stitch and flatten back out again
Use double sided tape, masking tape or hot glue to glue your cross stitch inside the folded cardstock card so the project is peeking out of the hole you cut. (This will be the front of your card)
Fold a second piece of card stock in half (either the same color or a complimentary color).
Use hot glue or double sided tape to glue it inside the first piece of card stock (so the cross stitch is sandwiched in there)
Print a message inside your card and/or on the front!
Framed Picture: Any of the projects can be finished this way.
The simplest thing is to purchase a picture frame and some matting material. Use masking tape to attach the project to the matting and then put it in the frame.
For a home made version, we do much the same thing as we do with the greeting cards:
Fold the unfinished edges over and temporarily pin onto the back side of the project
Lightly trace your cross stitch project onto the back of a piece of cardstock, poster board or fun foam which youve cut to the size you want your finished frame to be.
Try to make sure its centered
Use an exacto knife to cut a hole out of your card stock where you traced
Unpin the unfinished edges of your cross stitch and flatten back out again
Use double sided tape, masking tape or hot glue to glue your cross stitch onto the cardstock so the project is peeking out of the hole you cut.
Use hot glue or double sided tape to glue a second piece over the back of the first (so the cross stitch is sandwiched in there)
You can decorate your frame with puffy paint, sequins, cut outs, etc but try not to make it too busy... you want your cross stitch to take center stage!
Hang on the wall or refrigerator.
Pillow: Any of the more square shaped projects can be finished this way.
When youre finished cross stitching, simply cut out a piece of fabric the same size as your finished cross stitch
Pin the fabric and cross stitch with right sides together
Sew around three sides of the project leaving a 1/4 to 1/2 inch seam allowance (use a sewing machine or hand stitching
Remove your pins
Flip your pillow right sides out
Stuff pillow with pillow stuffing (for small pillows, add a bit of lavender, chamomile, cinnamon or pot pourri to make a smelly pillow for inside a linen cupboard)
Sew up the last side of the pillow
Note: keep in mind that these are beginner projects... feel free to spice things up by adding borders, ruffles or piping to your pillow if youre at a more advanced level.
How To Care for Aida Fabric
1. Clean hands are the first defense against damage to Aida fabric. Wash your hands before stitching. Stop and wash your hands if you touch anything that may soil them while you are stitching. Gently ask anyone who wants to touch your cross stitching to wash his or her hands first.
2. Keep all tools and implements used on Aida fabric clean. Store scissors, marking pens, needles, and other tools in a safe place and dedicate them to cross stitching.
3. If you use a hoop, clean it with alcohol or mild detergent and allow to completely dry. Frames should be held by the frame and not the fabric. The natural oils from your hands may eventually stain the fabric.
4. To avoid creases, store Aida rolled up or flat instead of folded. A crease may be next to impossible to iron out, and fading may occur along the folds.
5. Clean Aida with cool water and a very mild detergent. If bright flosses bleed, keep rinsing the project with cool water until it runs clear. Do not wring Aida out. Press it between the folds of a clean white towel to remove most of the water and lay it flat to dry in a safe location. Iron before completely dry.

By purchasing/bidding on the item, you are confirming that you have read and agreed to enter into a legal purchase contract with us (yourDIYshop) on the following Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with any of the following Terms and Conditions, please do not buy/bid on the item.
General All bids are final. By bidding on the item, you acknowledge that you have carefully read and accepted all the auction Terms and Conditions and agree to enter into an legally binding purchase contract between yourself (the buyer) and yourDIYshop (the seller).
Auction Description To the best of our knowledge, the description of the auction item is true and accurate on the day of listing on eBay.
Order Process Upon completion of the auction bid, a Winning Notification which includes a link for you to pay and provide your detailed shipping address will be sent to inform you that you are the winner of the item. On completion of checkout and receiving your payment, a Payment Received Notification will be sent to confirm that your payment for the item has been received. In most cases, items are dispatched within two business days of receiving cleared payment. Once the order has been dispatched, a Dispatch Notification will be sent to confirm dispatch of the order.
Payment Payment Reminder Payment for the winning item must be paid within 3 days of the auction end. Item that is not paid within 3 days of the auction end, a Payment Reminder will be automatically sent via eBay’s system. After 7 days of the auction end, a Non-paying item reminder will be automatically filed by eBay’s system, this will unfortunately result in your receiving an unpaid item strike from eBay and Negative Feedback will be automatically left to warn other sellers of Non-paying Buyer by eBay’s system. So, please do write to us in advance if you have any problem regarding your payment for the winning item. We accept payment via wire transfer for order over USD500.00.
Postage, Packing Handling Charges We try and keep things simple by having a flat rate charge. There is no absolute correlation between the weight and/or the size of an item and its price. A system, which recharges exact costs, would be expensive and difficult to administer and create uncertainty for the customer as to what the total cost of a transaction will be. These “handling costs” also include packaging and bank on each payment received. We also have to be realistic about time costs, as we must pay at least a minimum wage. These time costs do not change much between a single purchase under USD50.00 or one of USD80.00. Each transaction must be individually invoiced, picked and packed and payment allocated to an individuals account and reconciled. All of this takes time and the amount of money made on a small transaction is simply not enough to cover this.
Shipment Most orders are usually dispatched with two business days of receiving cleared payment. The estimated shipping times are 3~6 business days. Sometimes a few days of delay may happen. We are not responsible for delivery time because delivery times are provided by the carrier and may vary with package destination, particularly during peak periods. If the item is lost or broken after the auction end, another item will be shipped directly from our warehouse in the nearest neighboring country in order to save the delivery time. We reserve the right to use any shipping carrier (such as FedEx, DHL, Airborne, AN POST etc). (Please kindly notify us at your earliest convenience if you do not receive the item after 30 days of payment; otherwise we will not be responsible for any non-receivable item after 30 days of dispatch.)
