THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE
I’ve always been captured by this mysterious place and the reappearance of a ship that went missing years ago has rekindled my curiosity. I read a book about it years ago which was too technical for my small brain to absorb.
Has anybody read a book written about it for the normal everyday brain?
Looking for opinions
I have just started the Air Force Seal to honor my late husband who was retired Air Force. The pattern shows a lot of white in both the design and the surrounding area. It looks like these areas are left blank...no stitches. I don't like the look of the fabric showing through what with the holes and all and there was no white floss listed in the supplies. I have no problem filling in the blank areas within the design. My question is, what about outside of the seal. That's an awful lot of white...
Opinions, please. What would you do?
Update on DIY framing
1) It's really something you can do at home. Have courage! 2) The hardest parts of framing were cutting the foamboard and cutting neatly the Kraft brown backing paper. 3) Be sure to get the right supplies. My utility knife chewed the foamboad and the backing paper. Foamwerks by Logan has a cutter designed to cut foamboard and backing paper. They even offer a channel rail so you can hook the cutter onto the rail and ensure a straight cut every time. I'm giving my Seaside Retreat to my dad on Friday. I'm going to miss it. Anybody else want to try DIY framing? I'd like to hear another perspective of framing so I can improve what isn't quite right I can't be the only one with a little stack of samplers waiting to be framed. Now I can cross stitch as much as I want without the cost of custom framing looming ahead.
Any idea where to find blank cheap gift tags?
I want to stitch gift tags by stitching on perforated paper and then gluing the cross stitch to a heavy card stock gift tag. Are there any pre-made blank gift cards out there? I especially like the rectangle ones that taper down at the top and have a little hole for ribbon.
Aida fabric
Ok I'm looking at DMC adia 14 count fabric sold by yard but no other measurments mentioned. I need the total in inches for the smaller one.. 36" × ??" ?
Paper to adia
Good evening all , I was wondering how to change a pattern from perf paper to fabric ? I have a few patterns but I don't like the paper. I am a passenger on my wife's truck and cross stitch keeps me busy.
Thank you in advance.

20 count
I have never worked on 20 count. Opinions, please. Would one strand be enough for coverage or should I use two? It is Jobelan fabric. Pam
Stitch count and fabric size
I've always worked with kits, and now want to try my hand at design. Can someone explain what the counts mean? Is it the number of stitches in an inch (linear or square) or something entirely different? I'm interested in trying Jobelan as I want to make a cushion, but so confused about the number of stitches I would have if my preferred finished product size is 11 inches X 14 inches. I assume I should get a fabric about 15 inches X 18 inches. But how many stitches will I be stitching then, I need this info for my design software. Please help

Can I just buy the pattern
Anyone know if I can buy just the pattern? I've never done a "kit" and I really don't want to do a kit.
Teresa Wentzler
Years ago I bought a bunch of her leaflets and 4 books based on her designs.To date, I have only done one and it turned out beautiful. I would like to do more of them but I never learned the more advance stitches necessary. Can anyone recommend a book that I can get to learn these stitches? I'm looking at the "New Cross Stitcher's Bible", does any one own it? Thanks for any help.
Fabric?
I know all of the Artecy patterns can be started in the upper Left hand corner. So my question is. Would it be better to have 4 inches all the way around for framing or have 3 inches all the way around?
Cross stitch fabric
Does anybody know a good way to stop dark colored (red in this case) from bleeding onto white thread?
Thanks
I mean fabric color. Sorry
