Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have a pair of embroidery scissors and an appropriately sized embroidery hoop or scroll frame. Before starting, wash your hands to prevent oils from transferring to the white AIDA fabric.
- Preparation: Secure the fabric in your hoop, ensuring it is taut but not stretched.
- Stitching: Follow the provided color chart carefully, checking off completed rows to avoid miscounting.
- Care: Once finished, gently hand wash the piece in cool water with mild soap, rinse thoroughly, and lay flat to dry on a white towel. Iron on the reverse side while slightly damp using a low heat setting to preserve the texture of the stitches.
