Cross-stitch
Cross-stitch embroidery has always been a wonderful traditional, embroidery technique.
What used to be stitched by hand with a great deal of effort can now be sewn with the expression with astonishing ease and
speed.
With cross-stitch No. 20, design your own cross-stitch combinations. These patterns look as if they were hand-embroidered
and give a special touch to table linen, towels or garments.
Tips for cross-stitching:
• Sew slowly.
• Use foot No. 2.
• Place stabilizer under the fabric.
• You can embroider on Aida cloth as used for hand cross-stitching. The length and width of the cross-stitches of your
expression can be altered depending on the count/size of the Aida cloth squares.
• Use decorative threads to make your cross-stitch look more professional.
