Cross stitch - Aida tension

0 replies

PotBelliesGiveGoodLoving · 16/12/2021 14:24

Hi all.

About to start my first cross stitch using a scroll frame. Previously used a hoop but new project is around a meter square.

Struggling to get the same tension in the aida with the frame compared with the hoop.

How taut does the aida really need to be? In my mind too much tension is more likely to cause an issue rather than too little.

Is it a personal preference thing?
