{"product_id":"3793-7729","title":"18 Count Vintage Gray Aida Cloth Precut Cross Stitch Fabric 19x21 in by Zweigart 3793\/7729","description":"\u003cp\u003eStitch on Vintage Gray, an 18 count Aida cloth by Zweigart: a soft gray Aida with gentle, cloudy hand-dyed style mottling. The marbling is printed onto the cloth, so you get the look of hand-dyed fabric with an even, reliable weave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA little stitcher's folklore: stitchers used to dip new linen in tea or coffee to give a sampler an antique look; a printed vintage fabric gives the same aged effect without any risk of the colour running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhy this fabric: 18 count Aida gives fine detail and a smooth look for portraits, small motifs and ornaments, and it matches charts written for 36 count linen worked over two. This shade suits primitive, country and seasonal samplers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the pack: one precut piece of Zweigart Aida, 100% cotton, 18 count (7 squares per cm), in Vintage Gray. Not included: chart, floss, needle and hoop, sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGetting started: overcast or tape the edges, fold to find the centre and stitch one cross over each block with a size 26 tapestry needle, using one or two strands of floss. The marbling is printed, so each piece varies a little; buy enough for a whole project at once, and test a corner before washing a finished piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 48 x 53 cm (19 x 21 in). Stitched one cross per block with a 2 in margin all round, it fits a design of about 265 x 300 stitches. Pair it with a chart and floss for a ready-to-start stitching gift.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zweigart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68082471305525,"sku":"3793\/7729","price":8.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/7106\/5909\/files\/3793-7729.jpg?v=1793977820","url":"https:\/\/cshobby.com\/en-eu\/products\/3793-7729","provider":"cshobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
