The first one that I am going to do says stitch count 24 wide x 100 high and is done on 18 count aida fabric I think it will be 7 x 12 when I finish, but not sure and need to know the exact size to cut to allow for border or turning under thank you

hi nana - I used the fabric calculator here on ECS and it said your stitched area will be 1.3 x 5.6. A piece of fabric 6" x 10" should work fine. Please double check my math. The calculator is found by going under the heading of products listed above and clicking on fabric and the calculator will show at the bottom of the menu. Just type in your stitch width and stitch length and go from there. Have a good time. I have made some very nice book marks over the years. cheryl
