the fabric that it should be used for this cross stitch pattern is 32 c blue silk linen but if you want to use the Blue Aida 14 you will get bigger picture from it . but if you want to use 16 c Aida cloth which it is as 32 you will get the same size of the pattern use for the linen. Have fun

The designer did not "suggest" a particular fabric. That is why it was not listed. The dark background looks beautiful. It is probably navy. You will find a nice selection of fabrics by choosing the "cross stitch fabric" option on the left side of the screen. If you are going to stitch on 14 ct you will need a piece that is at least 15 x 25 inches. That will give you plenty of extra room for finishing the project.

I checked at the designer's website. It calls for 32 count dark blue linen, full stitches, stitched over two threads. It uses DMC thread which ECS list under the pattern. I think Kristi forgot to include the Kreinik Blending Filament which the designer list on her website.

You could use Aida fabric instead if you wish. I use it for all of my cross stitching projects.

I put this pattern on my wish list.
