Question
I purchased the gold collection by dimensions, 28 count Monaco fabric 14"x21" finished size 10"x17" I would like bigger size cloth to work on can I go to 14" aida, 30x36 to cut down after. Can anyone help me out. Thank you
Hello, Beth
I'm guessing that the finished size of the project is 10"x17". You'll need to cut the 14 count a minimum of 14"x21", which will give you an extra 4" margin around the finished design.
I hope that helps. Good luck, and happy stitching! :)
Sincerely,
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. :)
