St. Mary's with Houses and Chimney Cross Stitch Kit

The difference between 14-count and 18-count Aida fabric is in the size of the squares or holes, which directly impacts the level of detail and size of the final cross-stitch piece:

1. 14-count Aida: This fabric has 14 squares (or stitches) per inch. It is often recommended for beginners because the squares are larger, making it easier to see and work with. The finished design will be slightly bigger compared to 18-count.

2. 18-count Aida: This fabric has 18 squares (or stitches) per inch. Since the squares are smaller, the stitches will be tighter, resulting in a more detailed design. However, it might be more challenging to stitch on, especially for those with less experience. The finished design will also be slightly smaller than on 14-count Aida.

In summary, 14-count is larger and simpler, while 18-count offers more detail in a smaller size but can be more challenging to work with.

Unfortunately, the answer is no. All of our designs are Counted Cross Stitch, not stamped, so you will need to refer to the chart and stitch on a blank Aida fabric.

We are so flexible that it's so easy to get the kit of your dreams! Prefer a black and white chart? or maybe you want to stitch this on 16-count fabric? We can only offer 14 and 18-count Aida but we are happy to give you enough floss for 16-count and not include the fabric at a discount! Let us know what you need and we will add your preference to the listing with price adjustments.

We ship your order out within 1-2 days. Once shipped, delivery will take about 2-8 days via FedEx International Priority for most destinations.
