thanks to all. I do'nt know what I was thinking I thought you had to put them on the adia cloth. thanks again
943I'm glad you asked because I've wondered the same thing. I've been sort leery about the cross stitch designs because they seem to be extremely stitch heavy. My Futura machine doesn't do as well as I want it to with heavy stitch designs.
7419It looks wonderful on towels like Sally said. Hugs Louise
2281Do them on anything - but particularly effective on fabrics where you can see the weave so they look hand stitched! I've used linen and scrim (a sort of lighter weight hessian) to great effect.
140717I use anything. The cross stitch patterns are usually more dense. As you can see from Sally (beatie58), they look wonderful on towels. Good luck. Sarah.

70767On absolutley everything. Doesn't have to be on aida cloth. At one time I had some cotton fabric that had little tiny squares when I stitched out my designs it look just like I hand cross stitched it. Liz
4766I've put it on pillowcase dresses and it looked very nice...am hoping to do a baby blanket for my GD soon.
21593I have embroidered cross stitch designs on coasters and on a garment bag and I loved them. This type of embroidery takes longer to stitch but they are worth it. Just stabilize well and have a bit of patience. I have stitched them on felt and on polyester faux suede, with good results. Hugs, Lidia
78118You can use just about anything. If using sheer fabric you would want to stablized very well. Use cross stitch of felt and love they way it looks. I've done bookmarks and a panel picture of deer. It may have come from here (if not from Emb Library).
