Also, when the cross stitch is done, and I pull the canvas out, how does the stitching stay in place? And can i use fusable web to attach it to the back of my quilt?
yes do everything as normal. I find after i'm done. i spray it with water cuz the canvas is stiff. for me it was easier to pull out. just pull on each canvas string. like your unraveling it. it'll leave your work.... i hope this makes sense :D
Do I attach the design to the fabric first, then remove the canvas?
