I am a returning cross-stitcher from the 80's and 90's. This was very helpful!! Got me caught up with materials and trends
I love this new “all about” series! I love to learn, so getting deeper knowledge of this craft is super fun and interesting to me!!
Excellent, and very helpful, presentation, Kimberly! Thank you to you and all FQS employees who helped you prepare. Superb team work!
Thank you for this very helpful information...and thank you Fat Quarter Shop for the very best customer service I have ever encountered
I love that there are so many choices nowadays! They’re beautiful! When I began cross stitching 30 years ago, it was almost “what shade of white?” 😂
Thanks, Kimberly & team... I found out I can add the Cross Stitch Calculator to my home page... a choice in the upper right hand corner (on my phone), select the 3 dots to see the choice...Add to home screen.
Kimberly thank you for this video. I have been stitching for 40 years now and you answered so many questions I have had about fabric.
Wonderful video! This will be a great series👏👏👏. You sure have beautiful hands!
One awesome thing about Aida is how much faster I can stitch over any other cloth. Thanks for sharing!
As usual. This was very useful. I’m an Aida stitcher and love all the options you provide. Hugs from Canada.
Love, love, love this video Kimberly! You explained the differences in brands, colors and effects so clearly. I also love that you showed the 5 best sellers and your top five favorites. I’m looking forward to next month on evenweave and linen. Thanks for all you do for the cross stitch community! Your best advice ever is to do what you like, fabric choice, color, etc. Though, I do always like to hear your opinion!
Thanks so much, Kimberly! I learned so much about the beautiful fabrics we stitchers have to use in our needlework! You’re the best!❤
Thank you for doing this. Loved the topic! One of your best Stitchy Talks!! Looking forward to the even weave discussion and hope there is lots of input from Cheryl about the linen for it.
Great video! Thanks for providing the information of the different brands.
This was a very informative video - Thank You! I'm wondering if you have ever considered selling a sample pack of the large manufacturer's colors (Wichelt, Zweigert)? It is probably too labor intensive to put together but it sure would be wonderful to have!
Excellent idea!
That was my same thought too! I would definitely but it.
I have wondered the same thing. Thinking I may go to may local shops and see what they offer 🤔
I would love a swatch card.
It will be so nice to have this video to refer back to! I stitch on everything but prefer Aida. Thank you for the great info!
Thank you, Kimberly, you did a great job explaining all about Aida and the different types, whether it be hand-dyed or printed or brands. I do enjoy stitching on 14 count Aida but some pieces such as samplers, which I really love, etc. become so large in size that I had to learn to stitch on different counts so they would be manageable for framing regarding size. Thanks again!!
Beautiful video podcast…best wishes for 2023❤❤❤❤
I am a long time Aida stitcher but still learned a lot today ~ your new All About series is great. Thanks, FQS!
Thankyou for such a professional presentation as always. It’s a pleasure to watch.
Thank you Kimberly, this video was so helpful. You explained a lot of differences between the aida fabrics.
Love my aida!! 💕
Your sweater is beautiful!! 😊
LOVE FQS!!! 🤍🤍
IHOP absolutely!! Bon appetite!
Thank you, This was so helpful! Would love more videos like this in the future.
I have always used 14 count Aida like you. Thank you for all the information today. I started criss stitching in the 80's and yes Aida has come a long way. I have a few colors that I like to use but since I have started watching different Flosstubes I am starting to use more color. Have a great day.
Great info - I loved the comparisons of the different brands
Very informative. I learned a lot and have stitched for 35 years.
Such a wonderful informative video! Thanks FQS--this really helped with color differences plus the "hand" from Brand to Brand. Can't wait for the next one.
EXCELLENT!! One of your best videos
Your sweater is so pretty and you wear it well.
Thanks Kimberly for explaining it so well
As always, excellent video and information! Thank you for all you do!
Great informatio I'm an Aida stitcher my favorite is 16 count but hard to find So I stitch mostly 14 I plan to starting buying my AIDA from FQS I'm on a tight budget and have been using Hobby Lobby which is okay but I purchased a piece of the 14 Ct Blackboard and loved it what a difference.

Thank you. This was such a great video.
That was a very informative video. I stitch with both Aida and linen so I am looking forward to the video next month. I do not have a needlework shop near me so I love your shop. Customer service is exceptional.
Great overview- thanks so much!
Kimberly! This video was so informative and I can’t wait for the next one when you talk about the other fabrics! Thank you so much!!!❤
Thank you so much for this video! I am an Aida stitcher and proud of it! ❤ 16 count is my favorite. It was great to learn about the different brands of fabric.
Thank you so much, Kimberly! I thoroughly enjoyed your video. You explained everything so clearly and covered all the points and questions. I wish I could buy from FQS more often and feel so bad that I don't - it's just the currency exchange rate that makes it hard. Thank you so much to you and your team for your wonderful videos and amazing website which I love, love, love!
We appreciate your support no matter the method! Happy Stitching!
@@FatQuarterShopFlossTube Thank you so much 💖

Thank you for this video! This information is so important
Thank you for all that information. Was so helpful and was great to see the different kinds of Aida.
I found this very informative. It is wonderful to know the biggest sellers as well so you can put them in your stash for upcoming projects from the designers with Fat Quarter Shop.
Loved this video, so informative!
Thank u for all of the tips❣️
Kimberly, this was so informative! Thank you very much! I stitch on Aida and I love it!❤

Thank you Aida 😊
Great information. So helpful.
This videos is amazing! So much great information and was very helpful! Ty Kimberly and team❤
I like 28 count, but I started on Aida and I still enjoy. I’m trying 36 count and it’s a struggle. Yay for Aida❤
Because of your generosity in making these detailed videos (I've also viewed the one on linen...) I will definitely be making a cross stitch purchase from your shop. (all of my previous purchases have been quilting related).
Thank you that was so informative I love 14and16 ct they are easy for me to see great job ❤️
Fellow 14 ct fan here!!! Thank you so much for this info! Definitely saving this for future reference!
Wow! Great video,thanks
This video was amazing! I learned a ton! I would love to see a notions for cross stitch that make things easier and/or more efficient.
I just used a fancy print from Charles craft for Heartfelt and it looks amazing. It all depends on the design and colors you put on it.
Great video to keep! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great information! Excited for the next topic! Thanks for another great video!
Learned alot. I am in your aida club. Love it. Thank you and God bless you.
Thank you so much for this informative video, looking forward to next week's.
Great info. Thanks
Thanks Kimberly! Really enjoyed this. I'm a 14 aida girl and found this very informative. :)
14 count for the win
Great informative video! It really helped knowing the difference between the brands! Thank you!!
Lots of great info! FYI… the stitch calculator is fabulous! I use it ALL the time!!
Absolutely fabulous video!! Thank you so much!!❤️🥰😘
Good information. Thank you!
Loved this video! Aida definitely needs more love! I’d love to be a guest and chat about Aida, I have many pieces ranging from small to samplers on all different colors of Aida I’d love to share. 🥰
Thank you so very much for doing this video. I was just about to try other fabrics types; however, you have reassured me that Aida is what I am comfortable with and it’s okay. I was feeling pressure to try linen.
Thank you! I’m an Aida stitcher & really enjoyed this. Looking forward to next month’s talk on evenweave & linen.
Thank you for this video! As a new stitcher this was a great help!
Thank you. You explained a lot about Aida I didn't know.
I love this video I am a aida stitcher
Very helpful. I prefer a stiffer Aida and this just saved me from buying something I won’t like. Also thank you for sticking up for Aida. I’m a pretty experienced stitcher and I tried even weave and linen. Hated both of them. I’m sticking to Aida.
This is a great video! Thanks for explaining the differences of Aida you carry. Looking forward to next month's video telling about linen/evenweave.
I prefer Aida and I use 14, 16, and 18. I prefer the stiffer brands like Zweigart, Wichelt, and Charles Craft. I have never had any problems with Charles Craft and they have really pretty colors for a great price.
Loved this video! So informative and so helpful! Thank you!!
Thank you now I understand Aida much better.
Great video! Thank you so much for the great information and comparisons!
Fabulous video, so much great information!! I'm sure I will be referring back to the video and your notes often!! If you put all this info into a booklet or project card, I'd buy it!!
Great info! Thank you!
