Cross stitch embroidery : what fabrics?

Cross stitch embroidery commonly uses Aida cloth. Different sizes of weft are available, the smaller the weft, the smaller the cross stitch and the more delicate the end result - but also the more difficult the embroidery...
For a little variety, you can use colored Aida cloth, or bleached or natural (beige) linen.
When choosing a cloth, your notions dealer will ask you what size you want. In fact, the size of the cross stitches that you will embroider depends itself on the kind of cloth you choose. The number of cad hole per inch (hpi) of the cloth determines the fineness of the cloth, the higher the number, the finer the fabric.
For Aida cloth

HPI
11 count	for beginner
14 count	for Enthusiast
18 count	for a finer embroidery
Higher counts	for experienced embroiderers

Etamine cloth is a good cloth for beginners and for pretty embroidering. Etamine one thread equals approximately 20 count or more (very fine). Etamine 2 threads is closer to 14 count.
Lugana is another very regular cloth,(14 count) ideal for starting off on embroidery.

Replace your fabric with that used by painters for their canvases : With its linen look and good woven texture, it will help you add variety to the background of your work. It's also cheaper, but it must be dry cleaned.

How to cross stitch embroider any fabric you want

The 'grid' form of the fabric allows you to cross stitch the pattern of your choice. Once the embroidery is finished, you just have to pull out the threads one by one and the cross stitch pattern will be perfect!.

Embroidery Tips

How to prevent fabrics from moving in the hoop



1. You need a roll of hurt free tape for first aid, available at any pharmacy. This tape sticks to itself.


2. Roll the tape twice on each side of the top part of the hoop, “Sticky” side out. Don’t tape the corners, since those are already tight enough. It’s the side, and not the corners, where the fabric tends to shift most.



3. Complete all four sides of the top ( inside part ) of the hoop. Don’t place more than two layers of the roll but you can place more than one roll per side if the side is large enough.


4. Hoop your fabric as normally would. The fabric should be stretch to sound like a drum and the hoop tight enough to hold the fabric without hurting it. Never pull the fabric to one side or the other since that would distort it. You’re now ready to embroid without the fabric moving within the hoop. Your stitches will go in the right place now! This method is very helpful when you use large hoops.

Digitizing Methods

you build designs from basic shapes or 'embroidery objects'. These are like ordinary vector objects in that they have certain defining characteristics or 'properties' such as color, size, position, and so on. They also have properties unique to embroidery such as stitch type and density.

The most important property for an embroidery object is in fact its stitch type. Different stitch types are suited to different shapes. See also Fill and Outline Stitches.

The process of creating embroidery objects on-screen is called 'digitizing'. Like the creation of designs in graphics applications, this involves the use of input or 'digitizing' tools. These are similar to drawing tools except that the end result is an embroidery rather than vector object. Different tools are suited to creating different shapes or design elements. There are specific tools for digitizing larger complex shapes, asymmetrical columns of turning stitches, columns of varying width, columns of fixed width, lines, and even individual stitches.

Vector objects themselves can be converted directly to embroidery objects using the Point & Stitch tools. See Digitizing shapes with Point & Stitch for details.

This section describes how to digitize shapes manually with the available digitizing tools. It also explains how to adjust input settings to obtain the best results.
