• Use an embroidery hoop to keep the canvas taut and avoid puckering while working.
• Always count your stitches from the center of the canvas to balance your pattern on the edges of the support.
• Combine this Aïda fabric with Mouliné Special DMC threads for a clean finish and vibrant colors.
• Remember to overcast or zigzag the edges of your coupon before starting, to prevent the fabric from fraying.
• Reserve the longest lengths for tablecloths, cushions or large-format embroidered paintings.

To put together a complete embroidery kit, combine this Aïda Cream canvas with Mouliné Special DMC embroidery threads, round-pointed needles suitable for counted stitch, as well as a drum or an embroidery loom for optimal working comfort. An erasable marker or a seamstress pencil will also allow you to easily transfer your pattern before starting the work.
