May I ask what aida ct you prefer for the detail work you do?

[@gemmastitches]

@@randallhughes7938 I mostly stitch on 14 count so my projects are huge. I have a couple on 18 count. Details remain the same no matter what count you choose as it is the same number of pixels, it’s just the finished size that changes

Wow. Large stitch count today. Loving the blue. TY

Beautiful work! ❤

[@Linda-Lovestostitch]

So pretty.

[@randallhughes7938]

Thank you for answering. I know how and I am told do very well by my family that into everything fabric imagined. Just be debating on what ct aida I want to use. My thought was higher count would make it look better. Guess I just need to get nicer patterns

Gemma, what is your reasoning for highlighting the stitches as you stitch them verses doing it after you’ve completed both crosses?

[@gemmastitches]

I find it helps me keep my place
