FIGURING DESIGN AND FABRIC SIZE:
Design stitch count divided by stitches per inch equals design size.
Add 6 to 8 inches to get fabric size.
Divide the design stitch count by the number of stitches per inch,
depending on the fabric you are using. This will give you the design
size in inches. Add 6-8 inches to the design size to get your fabric
size. This will allow a 3-4 inch border all the way around for framing
and finishing.
Example 1:
- Design stitch count is 140 wide by 230 high.
- Design is being stitched on 16 count Aida fabric.
- 140 divided by 16 = 8.75 inches. (Round up to 9".)
- 230 divided by 16 = 14.4 inches. (Round up to 15".)
- For a 3" border all around add 6". Cut fabric 15" x 21".
- For a 4" border all around add 8". Cut fabric 17" x 23".
Example 2:
- Same design stitch count: 140 wide by 230 high.
- Design is being stitched on 28 count linen, over 2 threads.
- Divide 28 by 2 to determine the number of stitches per inch.
- 28 divided by 2 = 14
- Then follow the same formula as above.
- 140 divided by 14 = 10"
- 230 divided by 14 = 16.4". (Round up to 17".)
- For a 3" border all around add 6". Cut fabric 16" x 23".
- For a 4" border all around add 8". Cut fabric 18" x 25".
