I was talking about this at my retreat. Whilst everyone uses a app I’m with u …. Old school 😂😂❤

Teresa, I love watching your channel. Even when you are offering info/tutorials on topics I think I already know about-I can always learn something new. Today's video is awesome. It's always fun to listen to you when I'm stitching away. Thank you for making your channel so welcoming and fun. Happy stitching to you, from Virginia, USA.

This is always so helpful because I have memory issues, thank you!

Thank you so much,Teresa .Now I can figure out my own size of fabric now. I only use Aida. ❤❤

Was actually just going to go through one of your older videos because I know you answered it in part 3 or 4 of your full coverage tutorial, and now I'm just super happy I don't have to download an app.

Thank you for sharing this. You’ve turned something that seemed so complicated into so very easy!!

Oh yay, I miss all your tutorials!

I’ve done this since 1988! I find this formula in a copy of just crossStitch magazine 1988 it made cutting fabric so easy!

Thank you. Your explanations are so perfectly clear.

After not doing Crosstitch for over 30 years, I’m getting back into it and this is so helpful!

Once again you are awesome! I love your tutorials and todays helped me so much as I have struggled with 25 ct 1 x 1 to the point I was going to give up on my first HAED. I think between my stitchy BFF and you, I now have "permission" to stitch on whatever makes me happy!!!!! Thank you again!

Well bugger me! That is super easy!! Thank you!!!

Thank you for doing this Teresa. It is really simple to figure out fabric size. I've been stitching 50 + years. My original DMC card had a stitch count graph on the back. It has gone missing so I now use 123Stitch. Although it does not calculate fractions, I do a spread for every chart in 14, 16 & 18 count Aida. Then I make a list of charts using the same color fabric. So I make paper patterns of the size I need and lay them out on my yardage to fully take advantage of every inch of yardage.

Hi Teresa, I thought I knew all about calculating my cut size. Thank you for the information. I knew some of it but not all. Plus I'm still learning vocabulary, didn't realize 1 over 1 and 2 over 2 was about the fabric not the number of strands to use in our floss. LOL

Thank you Teresa, this video is a big help. I’m just kitting up my first Bella and this will help with selecting the fabric. Your a star⭐️ ❤️❤️

Teresa the time and effort you put into your videos are so very much appreciated!! ThanK YoU 😍

I am getting back into stitching again after many years away and love the way you explain the topic. I have been struggling with how to cut the correct fabric and this video has saved me many hours of anguish. Thank you.

Hello Teresa.. thank you so interested KZfaq...god bless you ❤

Thank you!! I’m a beginner and this was so helpful.

Thanks for a lovely tutorial Doing a stocking for each of my family members onto number 3 of 8 heaps of fun I work in 2 rows of 10 stitches across the whole stocking that way I am not changing my floss so often

Nice video! Always find your explanation very clear! A tutorial for a bella would also be super helpful. Especially about the special stitches!

Thank you Teresa, this video was a great help.

I can’t thank you enough!!! I had no idea how to figure this all out but knew there must be a way. You have absolutely made my day!

Great explanation of calculating fabric size!

Using an app takes 30 seconds... But it was still nice to stitch along with this video so hey, it was worth watching =)

Thank you for your help. You are always so kind!💕😍

Teresa, how did you know that I have been having this headache for my next project? 😅 my current WIP the fabric is too large so I’ve been going backwards and forwards on getting it right! My new project is only my second full coverage. This has come at the perfect time, thank you! ❤

Thank you so much! This video was incredibly helpful. Love your channel. 🥰

Thank you, this was very helpful to me.

Dear Teresa Happy new year! Thank you for this video will be be very useful when plan my next project and also helped me to understand what Flosstubers are talking about when they list off these numbers.

Great to know. Thank you for the helpful tips!

Very helpful. Thank you.

Thank you Teresa x

Thank you! This is very helpful information!

Thank you

Excellent teaching video! 👍

Thank you for the tutorial and for all your lovely flosstubes!

Teresa, Thank you so much for this tutorial. I always learn so much when you do them. I am just starting Mirabilias and this will help with my fabric selection. Any time you can do a tutorial, it is always a big help! Thank you again!!!

This was helpful. Thank you for taking the time to put this together for us.

Thank you, very informative! Didn't understand even weave until you explained!! ⚾️

Thanks Teresa, this was very helpful. I enjoy watching your videos.

Teresa thank you for sharing your knowledge on fabric size etc. Very informative. I currently stitch on 18 count and your explanation makes it so much more understandable. Love your videos and helpful tips. Take care.

Thankyou

Thank you. Great Tutorial! You explain things very clearly. And your stocking - It is beautiful!

Thank you so much for explanation with different sizes how to pick. I’m getting ready to purchase my first mirabellia still fairly new to crossstitch . I love watch all your other tutorials as well.

Hi Teresa , Just finished to set all of my chips of PiP and Chip floss storage system in my Ikea boxes... It's so pretty! Thank you again for all of your tips! Have a nice week ;-)

Thank you Teresa … that was brilliant.. you explained it so clearly.. I feel more confident to change things about if I want to… love from sunny Spain x

Thank you Teresa, this is really helpful. I am a 4inch either side girl as well. I always like wiggle room and a good safety margin. I never knew how the calculator did this, I have enjoyed seeing how you can work it out yourself.

Buenas tardes Sra Teresa, agradezco mucho su explicación de las medidas, ya guarde su video en favoritos y tome nota. Gracias por darnos tiempo. Saludos,Mexico 🌸

Hi Teresa, I am using the Cross Stitch Fabric Calculator App. It shows all the sizes from 6ct to 36ct, over 1 and over 2, in inch or cm on one side after you filled in your stitches and how much edge you want.

Hi Teresa!! Always love your videos. Question for you…have you done (or could you PLEASE do) a stitch in hand tutorial using the sewing method from left to right and top to bottom pretty pretty please? Thank you!!

Hi Teresa. Thank you for the tutorial. You explained it so well. Could you please explain how much extra thread you need too x

Thank you for this. Being dyslexic, I am totally math challenged but you made it understandable and easy. I had given up on being able to do a certain pattern I like because the fabric was impossible for me and I just couldn't seem to work out the conversion. But I used it to work along with you and now I've put it back on my list. I just have to wait for it to come back in stock. Any chance you can help with those fancy stitches that only work on linen and not on aida?

I stitch mostly HAED’s so I usually buy a yard and call it a day.

On the stocking deer creek, are you doing 1 over 1? you never really gave a definitive answer . I started on the higher count and I can't see well enough to do it. I've put it away for over 2 years. I'm doing it for my grandson. And was hoping to get it done before he was in his 50s. lol! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Love watching your show.

This was very helpful. Do you have a video talking about stitching fancy ladies like a mirabilia? and choosing a good fabric size - how many strands to use and how to do the over 2 for everything but the face is over 1? Or do you know of a resource that talks about all these things to know about stitching these type of projects? Thanks!

❤

❤️👍🏼

Did you figure out how to unwind a cxc skain without it knotting in one of your past videos you mentioned you would ask around so was wandering if you found out

Thank you, I’m brand new and have a dumb question? I want to make small Xmas cards and have a design ( that I bought) but I would like a border. How do i fiddle with the maths?

🐨👍

Merci !

I'm so lost. I have never stitched over 2 and didn't even know you were supposed to.

Do you ever use a fabric calculator ?

What makes it even more confusing is if you're not used to using inches 🙈

Just experience here from using Mill Hill "metallic" beads over they last 2 decades, I am VERY disappointed with them. Allow me to interject 'here' my projects are either completed but NOT in a frame covered with glass, OR in a frame with no glass over the top - intentionally as I really wanted the texture and shine of the beads to grab the attention of the eye, but over the years I have found specifically the metallic beads do lost their finish, it disappears almost as if it was rubbed off. The BEST beads are pearly-type beads and gems. I have an issue with the metallic. I do not understand why, so my next step is to email Mill Hill to ask why...thankfully the metallic beads have not caused any issues with the stitched pieces. Phewwww! There is nothing more beautiful than beaded pieces! But those metallics! Argh!! Frustrating!
