DMC Charles Craft Monaco Cloth - 28 Count - 15"X18" Box - White

I love it. I prefer linen over aida, and this is very similar to linen. It IS a little stiffer than linen and about as stiff as a fresh piece of aida, but that's exactly what I was looking for. I used a PVC style frame instead of a hoop, it's probably easier to get into the frame than it would be to get into a hoop due to the stiffness. As with linen you would probably want to stitch 2 over 2 or 1 over 2. This piece was stitched 2 over 2 (2 strands of floss over 2 holes in the fabric, you stitch in every other hole) - stitching over 2 makes this the equivalent of 1 count aida. The stitches came out perfectly even, and the edges held up fantastically - I did not glue or finish them before starting this piece and there was minimal unraveling. It's very nice fabric, I do recommend it.

Ideal, beautiful material. Price right & shipped fast

I only received 2 of the 4 that I ordered, but I LOVE cross stitching on this fabric…when it’s not so stiff it cuts my thread. Projects work up great, once the fabric softens a little!

The Charles Craft Monaco Fabric is an absolute must-have for any needlework enthusiast! This versatile fabric is made from 100% cotton, making it ideal for a wide range of techniques, from cross stitch to machine embroidery and beyond. The 28-count weave is perfect for creating intricate, detailed designs, and the smooth, even surface makes stitching a breeze. I was particularly impressed with the fabric's durability. Despite working on several intense projects, it has held up beautifully without any signs of wear. The generous 15 by 18-inch size provides plenty of space for various projects, and the crisp white color offers a clean, elegant backdrop that really makes my designs pop. Plus, caring for the fabric is a breeze, ensuring my finished pieces stay looking pristine. If you're looking for high-quality, durable fabric for your needlework projects, I highly recommend the Charles Craft Monaco Fabric!

I have purchased Charles Craft items in the past and it does not disappoint. No issues with this purchase. I have not tried using a 28 count fabric before and did not want to spend a lot of money to try it. This fabric fit the bill.

Good quality, arrived quickly.

Fabric started out stiff, but became workable the more it was handled.

I have not used this yet, but I expect it will live up to expectation.

Good quality and fast delivery. Satisfied with the purchase.

It was exactly what I ordered but I found the price a bit high considering that I could buy the entire kit for a few dollars more.

クロスステッチ用使います。DMCだから良い商品です。ちょうど私が期待したものです。

Toile très dur dommage ne correspond pas a mes attentes. Je recherche plutot une toile avec les même trous mais vraiment souple. .. déçu.

Perfect for me project
