Can you use the counted cross stitch fabric on a quilt?
I have quite a few Santa's that I cross stitched and was
thinking of using them for a quilt. The LQS told me the fabric would not work. Has anyone ever tried it?
I made 2 huge quilts with my Dad's assortment of x-stitch. He used 14 or 16 count canvas so I ironed interfacing on the back to prevent the batting from popping thru. But that was the only addition thing I did. Just put it all together with sashing, stitched in the ditch then did scroll on the sashing. Came out nice, altho heavier than usual
