How to cross stitch

[@mercymmee2111]

Perfect timing for your video! While I am an experienced cross-stitcher, I just received my first Joy Sunday stamped cross-stitch from Ali-Express. This video was so helpful to me because you explain so well all of the symbols on the printed canvas, and what to watch out for, so I won't be as likely to make a mistake reading the printed symbols. So thank you for making a "beginner" video that helped this experienced Stitcher with my first Joy Sunday kit you inspired me to buy.

[@EllyMcLeod]

Thank you so much for your informative video. I have completed lots of cross-stitched pieces before but this is my first experience of a printed aida fabric. You certainly have taken most of the mystery away from this new skill. Please keep on with your great advice - much appreciated!!

[@grandmagreko]

I just want to say THANK YOU! 💯🙌 I’ve had a printed cancan for over 3 yrs and with your instructions (the Best) I have pulled it out and will Conquer! Yay LOVE YOUR NAILS 💅

[@Lovecraftforever]

Thank you so much! Happy stitching 😘

[@Prairielily04]

Thank you, Natalia! I am a cross stitcher but I just received my first stamped cross stitch. This has been very helpful. 🌷

[@joaosoares5930]

Hello! Thank you for this amazing video. You helped me so much. Thanks from Portugal

[@tmac827]

I'am a beginner and your explanation of things are grand I'm also a new subble..please continue with the tutorials

[@cathyphegley7848]

Finally…..after searching and watching several tutorials I have found you my dear….and now I can proceed with the lovely cross stitch I ordered from Amazon by Captain Crafts. NEVER have done cross stitch…lots of embroidery, quilting, garment making, painting, knitting, latch hooking, even recently diamond painting. Have always wanted to try cross stitch but it seemed too complicated and fussy. My kit arrived and I opened it only to find it was like learning Greek! Thus my search of a few days for instructions I could understand led me to you …..thank goodness 💕

[@deepakzaveri7782]

you explained so well that any beginner can do cross stitch work after seeing your video easily.

[@Lovecraftforever]

Thank you 😊

[@barbararyan9811]

I just ordered a cross stitch for my new great grand baby nursery. I'm a bit rusty. A great tutorial for a person just starting .

[@Lovecraftforever]

Thank you dear Barbara

[@michelleriley6997]

Love the nails and I absolutely love the way you explain things. You gave me so much information and confidence.

[@master-buster]

Thank you so much for your video ! My mom offered me a kit but i was totally clueless how it worked. Thanks to you i'm now able to start it ! I can't wait for the final result ❤

[@ShatteredRippleBooks]

I was trying to work out these canvasses earlier. I finally figured it out. Then this video came up in my feed and confirmed I was right. Great video very helpful.

[@KristophersKorner]

Your videos are helping me so much! I am new to cross Stitch and you are showing me how to do it. Thank you.

It is, much easier . Thank you for visiting me

[@cfish2100]

I just got my first printed cross stitch and it's a Joy Sunday! I'm so excited to start. So happy to have your videos to watch as often as I need to. Started following you for diamond painting and now I'm starting this! You're the best!

[@demetriusoconnor8149]

Thank you so much your video is awesome. I haven’t done embroidery since I was a kid and I needed a refresher course desperately because it’s been too many years and I am so grateful your video is so detailed you did a wonderful job. Thank you very much I appreciate your video. I’m going to make a Christmas present and now I have the confidence to make sure it will be beautiful. God bless you merry Christmas.

[@cyrusrivera1]

Beginner, haven't even started a project but viewing videos to get comfortable to attempt 1st piece, excited. Thank you you make it easy to see & understand. :)

[@planningforeight2967]

Oh my goodness! Thank you for explaining all that to me! I am getting ready to start one of these and your video is great!!

[@Lovecraftforever]

Glad it was a helpful for you

[@AussieRobyn]

That was easy to follow as a new cross stitcher l feel more confident now..thank you so much...

[@jamiwomack2129]

I have a confession to make :( I had to give up on the winter canvas that you also were doing and done with now. The 3 strands were not working for me. I had to spend so much time fixing it that I was not enjoying it. 11 count is not for me. I have started another 11 count I have but only using 2 strands. Its so much better for me to learn on. My stitches are more even and the back looks good as well. I won't know how bad its going to look until I wash it. Not worried about it as this is just for practice. It's also a Joy Sunday the Flower Cabin. It has lots of back stitching and even a french knot to learn on. So much fun when I don't want to think just stitch. I can't just sit and do nothing even when I watch TV. If it turns out ok I can always frog the christmas one and do it in 2 strands instead of 3. I have been looking around for a 14 count now to do when I finish learning from my Flower Cabin one. Thanks for sharing your valuable knowledge with us.

[@PalmDreams]

I've been Addicted to your diamond painting videos and now I've watched several cross stitching ones and I think I'm going to have to get a kit! It's all your fault Natalia !I love the kit on fan sells That has the little girl picking S Stars out of the sky ! Both of these are really gorgeous in this video too!Decisions decisions! I'm excited you added this craft to your channel! Part

[@Lovecraftforever]

So glad you like it Cathy. I'm waiting some cross stitching from them too, some of the new ones on 14 count Aida

[@ladyhecate9450]

I crewel embroider and have always wanted to do a stamped cross stitch pattern. You really covered everything such as always go in the same direction. I am a little confused in that I see all these white squares and I thought one had to fill in that little white square one at a time but when I watched, it looked like you were putting the needle into a square already colored and left the white square alone and just colored the same spot again. I will have to watch again. I wished I had watched this video before I bought my printed cross stitch and bought the brand that you like. Oh well....next time. I use to paint in oils for 14 years of landscapes. Then I went to decorative painting with acrylics. Then got into watercolor which I am enjoying but one just cannot sit anywhere and paint such as in the living room or even in bed. You have given me hope that when I cannot watercolor, I can do printed cross stitch in the room where my husband is so he does not get upset that I am in another room watercoloring. I just cannot keep still. I need to be doing something all the time. Anyway thank you so much for this video. You did a fantastic job!

[@saragarddiner9244]

Thank you! I am a beginner. You make it all look so easy. I will try the links for some cross stitch Take care Sara

Ok Natalia i love you, love you, love you!!!! First of all, through your videos i found out this amazing diamond painting company called Dreamer Designs and i have already ordered two amazing diamond paintings from Dreamr Designs (i'm waiting them to come!!!). But unfortunately the amazing canvas of Guido Borelli you have shown us is currently sold out. I hope that it will come back in stock soon in order to buy it. Secondly, through this video i learnt how to do stamped cross stitch!!! The only thing i didn't understand is how to do back stitch!!!But i hope that i will understand it finally!!! Anyway, I really Thank you very very much!!! I'm very grateful for your amazing work!!! I wish you stay healthy, safe and have a great time!!! Greetings from Greece sweety!!!

[@susanc1179]

This video is so helpful! Thank you! I’m not a beginner but I’m not advanced either. I’ve never washed a canvas before. Have you ever had the dyes on the threads bleed? I love the idea of using this type of canvas but I am really worried I’ll get one where the dyes just bleed all over the finished cross stitch.

[@ayomarkos2702]

I lake the way you are teaching 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@roelinkabek9286]

Nice and clear video. What I do is roll up the canvas with the back facing me. I hold the roll in my hand so I don't touch the stitches. I do a complete colom and when done I roll that the same way so my stitches are protected

[@janeconnelly5671]

Thank you so much it was very helpful. Do you have a video on how to back stitch

[@shihtzulady1978]

Brand new beginner. My mother showed me the basics, but you answered lots of my questions. Thank you so much! However, I am confused about how you started your thread in the patch. With the Wave, it didn't look like you went all the way through the canvas, but you definitely went through part of it. How did that work?

[@winniecastro2874]

Thank you for Sharing....🙏 Love all the way from Philippines💛💙

[@tassiedevil6933]

Hi Natalya, wish you had done this before I started my first Joy Sunday, I know the DMC/Symbols from DP, but I had the threads with numbers on one side and on the other side the numbers are different and the DMC under number, lucky I ran out of a colour and figured out what happened 9 wasn't 9 it was 7 on the other side, the picture colour for the edge wasn't the same colour, so check the DMC on the colour code under the floss

[@Lovecraftforever]

Oh wow, sorry about that. Did you manage to finish that cross stitch?

[@tassiedevil6933]

@@Lovecraftforever pls don't apologise it was my first, just in case new people know what to look out for, no just started it, doing DP, and crochet too. It's all a learning curve☺

What does the colorful symbols mean on the pre printed fabric fabric? Could you please tell?

[@vincenzomatteliano2246]

Hi Natalya, My printed diagram shows various symbols for back stitching like a square or an x, how do I backstitch that?

[@Lovecraftforever]

Hello Vincenzo can you please join my FB group Lovecraftforever and post a picture of those symbols so I can understand better. Because an x usually it’s a full stitch

Thank you for this awesome video Natalia. You inspired me to try. I just started working on a stamped cross stitch on 11-count Aida. Do you have a preference for stamped cross stitch....11-count Aida or 14-count Aida? Not sure I like the three threads but enjoying how big the holes are! Thanks again. Happy stitching 🧵

I have always done counted cross stitch so I bought a printed one to try. I discovered I dont actually like doing it as it’s like colouring . I like it better to see the picture appear as you stitch.

[@gilliancarr3275]

I've done a couple of pre-printed kits they are great but you can make mistakes by not taking care to check that you have the correct coded thread. you relax so easily into it

[@wendyswanson6461]

Do you start your stitching in the middle and do you change colors as you stitch?

[@ninamontero7456]

Outstanding!!! Subscribed.

[@kelleydwyer5708]

If the symbols and color bar only says cross stitch does that mean all the stitches will be the x stitch?

[@heidicraftydogs]

It is the same.

[@annacalabretta1759]

I just started my first ever cross stitch and I have a question. Mine has a very noticeable X showing, yours looks much different. Could it be due to my thread not being as good quality? Yours seems almost thicker.

Do you recommend I start on the bigger area or the smaller on my printed cross stitch

The "Winter" pattern by this "Joy Sunday" is originally designed by Carl Valente and it's called "Winter Outing". It is sold as a kit by Sunset Counted Cross Stitch. So be aware of the kits sold in China.

[@marilynmccall2879]

Do you need to start in the middle of a stamped pattern or can you start anywhere? Also wondering, my kit didn't come with needles. I have 11 count aida cloth and am supposed to use 3 strands. Love your video. Thank you!!!

[@Lovecraftforever]

You can start anywhere you like, and yes 3 strands with 11 count.

[@marizepsilonian]

I love your tutorial. But can you help me . In my pattern there are 1 symbol but associated with 2 different DMC. How to deal with that? by the way im working in 11count with 3strands of thread . I just cant figure it out. Please help. Thanks in advance

[@helenbiteng8601]

Good Day.I have a stamped cross stitch,this is my first time.I just want to ask what does the / this symbol means in the cloth and this \? Is this half stitch?

[@Lovecraftforever]

It's just a symbol for X stitch. If your canvas have half stitch, it will say on the canvas or paper pattern
