Re: Wooden cross stitching
Do you mean cross stitching on wooden shapes with holes in them, like this kit at Sew & So?
I don't think there is anything particularly different about stitching on wood except it may be a little awkward to fasten off because it is so stiff. I would start with a loop start wherever possible, then cross stitch as usual, and possibly change to a smaller needle for finishing off.
Hope that helps!

I've never seen that before. Looks interesting. I hope you will post pictures of your work when you do this.

Re: Wooden cross stitching
Sure rcperryls. I didn't start to do. This is my first trial. Many my customers are asking for wooden cross-stitching.
Re: Wooden cross stitching
I've never heard about that, so I am very curious to see what it looks like...
