I am unsure as to why you can see the fabric showing threw when I do an x. when I do one x some fabric shows threw. while some doesn't show threw. am I using to thick of a needle? I only use two strands of thread. I am using ada 18 count. -- tracy stevens from fort wayne, in

- Sounds like your tension is a bit too tight. Try stitching a little bit looser and that should help. I always use 2 threads on 18 count and have very good coverage. Best of luck! -- Eileen from OH -- Nov 17

About Copyrights:
Copyright patterns may not be copied and given to someone else. It's against the law and it's dishonest. On the Internet, one copy can quickly turn into one million which basically takes away the need for people to buy the patterns, which puts the designers out of business. You can give away, trade, or sell the original leaflet though.
