Notes:
- The best cross stitch designs come from photos that are clear with good colours and contrast. If your photo has a lot of dark shadows, this will appear on your design.
- The amount of detail in a cross stitch chart is influenced by only one thing – the number of stitches in the design. The larger the chart, the more stitches, the better the detail in the finished design.
- The number of stitches per square inch is dependent on the fabric count. A 14 count Aida fabric will give 196 (14 x 14) stitches per square inch, whereas a 18 count Aida fabric will have 324 (18 x 18) stitches per square inch.
- We generally recommend a design size of at least 21 x 29 cm (11 x 8 inches)
- Sizes are approximate. The actual size will be in proportion to the original photo you supplied.
- Your picture is NOT printed on the fabric or canvas, you work the design from a chart. Your chart is printed in grid form with each thread intersection being represented with a symbol that shows what colour is meant to be stitched on that intersection
