Similane 6 Pieces Aida Cloth 14 Count Cross Stitch Fabric, White, 12 by 18-Inch

Measures 11 3/4 × 17 5/8 inches.I like the stiffness, so I stitch in hand until it softens. It ironed easily & did not melt or burn with high heat, so it irons like cotton.

Nice product. The fabric is very stiff which is good for a beginning cross stitcher.

First I should admit that I haven't done cross stitch for quite a few years. However with my carpal tunneel and arthritis problems under better control now, I wanted to get back to it. However I haven't bought aida cloth in quite a few years. So I don't know how unusual this is or is not.The first thing you should knot is that the fabric is very stiff. I'm assuming at this point that it has been very heavily starched and that it will soften when washed. But I plan to use it with something to hang on the wall rather than a pillow top. So, if you want something softer, you will definitely need to test it out first.The stiffness of the fabric will be helpful when stitching. But I'm purchasing a frame for mine because i think putting it into a hoop will cause permanent distortion. Another asset for stitching is that the holes are quite distinct making them easier to see and to stitch than those of the softer cloth I've been used to. I'm not sure if that will bother me when it's stitched out and framed or not.All in all, I really like this fabric, even if it has characteristics I wish I'd known about before.

Decent for the price. Feels more like plastic than aida at first but after use it does break-in and become softer. My main complaint is that the aida cloth likes to split. I had to be very mindful to make sure the needle was in the correct spot and not splitting the cloth. It does seem to wear the thread very fast, as I had more lint while using this. The color was perfect.

I got this as an added bonus for a friend that I bought a Halloween-themed cross-stitch book for. She was so excited.

I had a lot of floss and some patterns to try but needed some cross stitch canvas. This came recommended from the pattern designer and is a great price point. Canvas works well and was easy to cut down for my project.

These are great, but note they are thick feeling. They work good for crafts that you may want more of a stiff fabric.
