This is so clear and detailed. Thank you so much for your explanation. I've been trying to figure out how to read AND implement a pattern for so long. I've just been encountering tutorials that only show me one or the other. You're a life saver T-T

Like another viewer, it’s been many years since I made several cross stitch patterns, so this was a perfect refresher. years ago I used thin sewing thread (not DMC) to mark the vertical and horizontal center lines before counting from the project center to start the pattern crosses. Of course pull out the center line marking thread at end of the project.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you - I've never had anyone show me how to cross stitch so I was trying to figure it out through trail and error, but this really made the process clear and less overwhelming. I feel like finally this craft can be achievable lol. Thank you again for this!!

Hi Hailey. Just found your video. I'm picking up cross stitching after many years. So, I've forgotten another. Your tutorial was so helpful. The way you instructed was clear and simplified. You are a great instructor. I've been a nursing teacher for years so I think I'm pretty good at assessing how well someone else can teach. Great job.

Wonderful tutorial! I’ll be sure to direct friends that want to try out Xstitch to watch this video. Thank you! PS: Perhaps it was mentioned and I missed it, … when the thread starts to twist within itself it helps to let the threaded needle dangle for a second so it can untwist itself which in turn prevent knots.

Cute pattern you designed. Very clear and thorough tutorial. I would just make sure the person reads over the chart before starting.

Thanks for this video! I’m getting ready to start my first cross stitch project. I am curious on your thoughts of the Charles Craft DMC vs. the Wichelt? Is the Wichelt worth the price difference to you?
@HaileyStitches3 жыл бұрын
Yay! Personally I can’t tell a huge difference! Wichelt is a bit more stiff, which is nice if you’re not going to use a hoop, but I don’t really think it’s worth the price difference. I only buy Wichelt when it’s all that’s available when I’m shopping at certain stores online. I think Charles Craft and Wichelt have very comparable Aida fabric!

So how do you start a pattern if not starting in center I was 🤔wondering?
