want to use 14 cnt Aida finished picture is 20x19.
What would the difference in appearance of the picture be if I used 14 count Aida? 18 count would be too small a stitch for me to handle.

On 14 count Aida the picture would be 32" x 25".....that's huge! It will also appear 'fuzzy' since you've blown up the image so much.

The description says this is stitched on 18 count aida using full cross stitches only so with a good pair of magnifying glasses you should find this a littler easier to do. I am doing one similar at the moment and have found this works for me with my eyesight issues. Good luck.

I myself find 18 count difficult, but 16 count is not so bad. If you convert the dimensions to 16 count they come out approximately to 28 1/4 by 21 3/4, which is only a few inches larger. My advise, try stitching a little something on 16 count & see how you like it. I prefer 14 count with 3 threads, but when using 16 count 2 threads cover fine. Good Luck!
