HAED on 18count aida

[toni99]

I intend to do my HAEDs on 18ct aida, full cross, since 25ct fabric is very hard to find here, and also my eyes will be strained too much if I do it on higher counts. Aside from the finished size becoming larger, how about the appearance, will it still be that distinct? And are there any other things I have to consider?

Thanks in advance!

I'm doing my HAED on 18ct and the only other factor to consider is that it will use a lot more thread than 25ct, especially as you will have to use two threads. I think the detail in mine is good - but I haven't really got enough of it done yet to say, for sure, that it isn't 'losing' something.

I'm only part-way into stitching an HAED on 18-count, but it doesn't seem to be losing any of the details as the stitches are still quite small. I'm using 2 threads over 1 and the coverage is great.

I have done all my HAED's on 18 count with 3x1. So far so good!

I wouldn't be too concerned at all. I think you're eyes will thank you for it

I use 18ct aida on HAED's. The detail is still very good. You can have a look at my Wrath in the SAL to see what they turn out like

Hi, sorry to be a pain, I figured out WIP(work in progress) but what is a HAED please? Ta, HBC

Lovely to have another new member that we can corrupt - sorry - encourage! You will regret asking this but HAED is www. heavenandearthdesigns.com, won't say any more - just have a look and come back and tell us you can't find a thing that you want to stitch!
Happy Stitching (from a HAEDcase!)
