The finished design measures 36 x 36cm.

Are the threads pre-sorted?

How should I clean the finished piece?

Troubleshooting

Threads tangling during stitching

Use shorter lengths of thread to prevent knotting and keep your needle organized when not in use.

Fabric tension is uneven in the hoop

Ensure the fabric is re-tightened periodically while working and avoid over-stretching the aida holes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, pre-sorted threads save time and preparation
  • Large finished size makes for impressive wall art
  • Clear, color-coded pattern simplifies complex stitching
  • Comprehensive kit includes all necessary supplies for immediate start

Cons

  • Requires a significant time investment due to its size
  • May be challenging for absolute beginners
  • Does not include an embroidery hoop, which must be purchased separately

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure you have a clean workspace and an appropriate size embroidery hoop. Place the aida fabric over your hoop, ensuring it is taut but not stretched out of shape. The kit includes all threads; keep these organized in the provided packaging to prevent tangling during the project.

Once finished, gently hand wash the fabric in cool, mild soapy water if any oils from your hands have marked the canvas. Lay the fabric flat on a clean towel to dry. When ironing, always press on the reverse side of the stitching using a damp pressing cloth to protect the integrity of the embroidered design. Do not bleach or tumble dry.
