About Angela
Expertise
I have 22+ years of cross stitching experience, which includes stitching on Aida, evenweave linen, vinyl canvas, and have stitched a design on a cotton t-shirt using waste canvas. I have also worked with beads and blending filament in quite a few projects. I have made many projects which include cross stitched mugs, a keychain, pictures, magnets, and the cotton t-shirt. I can answer questions pertaining to preparing and cleaning fabric, preparing clothing for stitching, how many threads to be used on which Aida cloth, and will try to help you to the best of my ability with other questions you may have. I am prompt in my responses and usually answer within 24 hours from when you ask your question. I look forward to helping you. :)

Cross Stitch - what fabric do I use for a counted cross stitch project when I use waste cloth


Expert: Angela - 2/28/2009

Question
I want to do Precious Moments counted cross stitch on squares for a baby quilt.  I want to do it with waste cloth, and I want the fabric not to be too thin and perma press.  What kind of fabric should I look for?

Answer
Hello, Karen

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with sewing fabrics.  If you're looking for a particular sewing fabric, I suggest going to Joann's Fabrics, Hobby Lobby, or Michaels and see if they have anything like that.  I know that Hobby Lobby has a sewing section and they may be able to help you with your project.

I hope that helps.  Good luck, and happy stitching!

Sincerely,

Angela
