ABOUT ME:
Thanks for visiting my channel, I hope you enjoyed the video! I founded Caterpillar Cross Stitch in 2015 when I tried desperately for months to find a modern baby sampler my mum could stitch for new baby Felicity that would fit in with her simple, contemporary nursery. I love cross stitch, running, baking fruit cakes, drinking gin, eating salted caramel ice cream and most crafts!
See you soon and happy stitching! Sally x

Thanks Ford. I've been stitching for a lot of years, and have been using this method for years, but I still learned two new things from this video. Seems I always learn at least one new thing from every one of your videos!

This is exactly what I needed! Mine is not laying flat right now. I've been painting my bamboo hoops and it's finished it off so nicely 😊

Hi wondered with tiny hoops, how to hang against wall? I was thinking of using a long ie: 2”?? Velvet ribbon, as I have 4 embroidered pics. Then use a pin to adhere to ribbon? Do you have any other ideas to hang. Trouble for me is they are so tiny to hang, I need some ideas re displaying them? Hope you could help? Sincerely Mon Stephens🌸

[@CaterpillarCrossStitch]

Hi Mon, when you say tiny, what size are the hoops?

[@HilltopStitching]

How do you frame a small piece in a regular frame? Like a 5 x 7?
