Linen Sizes
The original sampler was stitched with cross stitch over two threads of linen with the exception of the word “heart” which is worked in cross stitch over one thread. For those wishing to stitch on Aida the word “heart” could be worked in backstitch or replaced with a small, cross stitched heart.
Mary used an uneven linen of approximately 33/30ct and cotton thread. The model was stitched on a Zweigart linen overdyed to the shade of Crème Brulée by Tabby Cat Linens. The design area is 249 stitches (w) x 249 stitches (h). Our calculations have included a 3″ margin for finishing and framing.
