Hints and Tips:

• Pre-Wash: Although Aida fabric is pre-shrunk, we recommend hand washing a small piece before starting your project to avoid any surprises later.
• Use Embroidery Hoop: For the best results, use an embroidery hoop or frame to keep the fabric taut while stitching. This helps to maintain an even tension in your work.
• Count Your Stitches: Make sure to count carefully and check that your stitching aligns with the Aida grid for a clean, professional finish.
• Finishing Edges: If you're making smaller items like bookmarks or ornaments, finish the raw edges with a simple overlock stitch or a hem to prevent fraying.
• Stitching Threads: Aida fabric works beautifully with embroidery floss, perle cotton, and specialty threads. Experiment with different threads to create a range of textures and effects in your designs.

Washing Instructions:

• Washing: Hand wash in cold water to maintain the fabric’s integrity and prevent shrinkage.
• Drying: Lay flat to dry to avoid distorting the fabric.
• Tip: We recommend testing a small piece before washing to ensure the fabric meets your expectations.
