Yes, the finished table runner can be hand-washed in cool water with mild detergent. Iron on the reverse side on a low setting.
Instructions typically specify the number of strands to use for different stitches. It is generally recommended to use 2-3 strands for cross stitch and back stitch unless otherwise noted in the provided instructions.
The kit provides pre-sorted threads, but if you find you are running low on a specific color, try to use it sparingly on less critical areas or contact Vervaco customer support for potential replacements if absolutely necessary.
Ensure you have adequate lighting. The chart uses large squares for clarity. If still challenging, consider using a magnifying glass.
Ensure consistent tension when pulling the thread through the fabric. Practice on a scrap piece of fabric if available. Make sure you are using the recommended number of strands for your thread.
The edges of the embroidery fabric may fray slightly. You can secure the edges with a small amount of fabric glue or by using a zig-zag stitch on a sewing machine if preferred, before starting your project.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This kit is a self-contained craft project. The included materials are specifically chosen to work together for this design. No external components are required for completion.
Care:
Once stitching is complete, the fabric should be carefully hand-washed in cool water with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and roll in a clean towel to remove excess moisture. Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. Iron gently on the reverse side while still slightly damp, using a low heat setting. For best results, consider framing or lining the finished table runner.
