Return to article: How to Choose a Cross-Stitch Project
on 11/7/2008 Thank you for this very helpful information. I have some cross stitching projects that I have been wanting to start on but have been to scared to try.
on 4/1/2008 Beginners could look for also look for simple patterns on free websites. These patterns will allow for color changes and can offer really good practice before getting into the more complicated projects.
on 11/22/2005 It shouldn't have too many colors. The colors should be in blocks/sections rather than all inter-mixed. The more white space/unstitched squares, the fewer the stitches needed to complete the picture. Make sure there are no half or quarter stitches. While back stitching adds to the project, it can help to mask errors and uneven stitches.
