Create Your Design Using Cross Stitch Graph Paper
Cross stitch graph paper is a graph paper that is used for making cross stitch design. If you wish to create your own cross stitch pattern then graph paper is the first thing that you should have. You can buy an ordinary graph paper or a special purpose cross stitch graph paper in various counts like 14 and 18 counts. With the help of a tracing paper, you can make a graph of the picture that you want to project as your cross stitch pattern.
Benefits of Using Cross Stitch Graph Paper
- Cross stitch graph paper makes cross stitch patterns designing easier.
- You can use pictures of your choice to create cross stitch pattern.
- Your design on the graph paper gives a rough idea how your finished design will appear on the fabric.
- You can avoid mistakes with the help of cross stitch graph paper. This is not possible if you project your picture directly on the cross stitch fabric.
- By counting the number of stitches in a row of the graph, you can count the same number of crosses on the fabric.
How to make a cross stitch design using a cross stitch graph paper?
To make pictures on graph paper, you are required to have a pencil, eraser, colored pencils, floss color chart for color shades and a graph paper of course.
- Make your design on the cross stitch graph paper. The size of the picture that you draw matters a lot. Hence if you are drawing on 8 squares per inch graph paper and using a 16 count Aida cross stitch fabric then your image will be half the actual size.
- After you have drawn the picture, transform it into square edges. This is important if you want to project the picture on to the Aida cloth.
- After you have drawn the picture, make its edges sharp and square as in cross stitch patterns for ease and clarity of the final design outcome.
