How much fabric do I need?
To calculate the amount of fabric you will need for your project, divide the number of stitches by the stitch count of the fabric you wish to use. The higher the count of your fabric, the smaller your piece will be. Some examples appear below. Remember to leave several additional inches as a border on each side, to facilitate framing your project when it is finished.
| Fabric count | Approximate size

|---|
| 14-count | 9" × 12 1/4" |
| 18-count | 7" × 9 1/2" |
