1. Select a stamped cross stitch design of your choice. Make sure you have the right Floss colors, needle, scissors and optional hoop to begin your project.

2. To begin, match the colors of Floss to those on the preprinted fabric. You will be forming cross stitches over the colored area on the fabric, using the Floss color that matches the printed color.

3. You want to stitch only where a full stitch is possible – do not stitch into the white areas of the fabric. Also, please note that not all colored areas need to be stitched.

4. Begin stitching at the center of the design and work you way to the edges.
