FABRIC SIZES - PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK SIZES BECAUSE NOT ALL FAT QUARTERS, FAT HALF, & YARD ARE THE SAME

Dyed Example - 32ct lugana & 36 lugana

Color(s)- Deep red/Burgundy, sized fabric is going to be more faded red/rose

Colors in the close up photos are most accurate. DMC floss is used to show color family equivalent. This does not mean that they're an exact match, just a reference.

Linen will always dye darker/more vibrant than any cross stitch fabric, then aida (14ct darkest, 20ct, 16ct, & 18ct dyeing lightest), followed by evenweave fabrics (usually not 100% natural fiber) dyeing the lightest. All opals will dye about 10% lighter because of the opalescent thread woven through it. 

Sized fabric may dye lighter or a slightly different color. The following is the sized fabric - 16ct/20ct opal aida, 20ct lugana, 22ct hardanger, 25ct lugana, 25ct opal lugana, 27ct linda, 28ct monaco, 28ct/32ct jobelan, 36ct/40ct opal linen, & 36ct/40ct lugana.

Sizes are prior to dyeing. There will be some shrinkage during the dyeing process.
