    Very clearly presented. You have confirmed what I have discovered in my stitching chair.

      Thank you 😊 Good to know you've found the same as me.

    Thank you for an informative video. I’ve often thought I would like to use a different size fabric, but have never been able to figure that out! Your video has now opened many stitchy doors. Looking forward to the next video 💜

    Always interesting and worth watching! Some of us forget or have never been taught. Always worth watching 😊 Thank you!

    6:12 I feel like I'm back in school! 🤣
    (🙋‍♀️ When is our homework due, and will there be a test at the end? 🤯)
    9:37 I can hear every maths teacher I ever had, telling me "this will come in handy one day..." 🙄😆
    ...Phew, I made it to the end! Great video, but now I need a cup of tea and a good lie-down. 👍

      Definitely no homework or test 😂 And yes, grab that cuppa and lie down if you need it! What can I say...maths will do that to you 😂

    Thank you so much for a very informative and well presented video. I am amazed at your skill at mathematics but you would need to be with designing your own patterns. I have learnt a lot from this video. I will stick to the stitch calculators on the computer as my maths is not nearly as good as yours. Thank you so very much.

      Thanks so much! Those online calculators are super useful...I can do the maths but I still use them 😂

    You need to know…that way you can get the right amount of fabric for your project!

      Not to mention the right needle size!! 24 needle with 14ct aida, 26 for 16ct, etc

    Hi, so:I bought a 40. Ount design and I’m wondering to make it so I can see it, if I used 20 count is that the same size ,thanks so much

    • @catkinandlillie

      Yes, if you stitch over 2 threads of 40 count linen then the finished design would end up the same size as stitching over 1 thread of 20 count linen (or 1 block of 20 count Aida). If I've lost you with stitching 'X over Y' then this video covers all of that ua-cam.com/video/bZ6_VitFUS0/v-deo.html
