Are you asking about making the pattern larger to read or just larger when stitched? if you are talking about larger when stitched you can switch to 14Ct Aida fabric or even 11Ct. and it will make a larger picture. Just divide the stitch count by the count of the Aida fabric you want to use and that will give you your finished size.

Don't forget to add 6 inches to the length and 6 inches to the width when purchasing your fabric so you have enough for framing or whatever you are doing with it. Very cute pattern.

so if I use this pattern and buy 14ct fabric, my end result will be a larger picture?? that was easy thanks...

If you use 14ct. Aida your finished size will be 10.86 inches x 8.86 inches. Basically that is about an inch larger on each side. Since this is a kit you would have to buy the 14Ct. fabric extra. The kit comes with 16Ct. Aida. It is up to you whether you want to spend extra money just to get an extra inch in size for the picture. Hope this helps.

This really helped me as I am a rookie at this.. thank you very much for your help..

ANOTHER THING -- if you decide to switch to 14ct fabric you probably will not have enough floss to finish the project. Your best bet would be to buy all new flosses. You will have to use a conversion chart and match the floss in the kit to another brand. Most of the stitchers here use DMC. You can find a conversion chart at cyberstitchers.com

So cute of a birth record.
