*I do not recommend using Aida type fabrics due to the presence in the pattern of decorative stitches made through 1 thread of fabric interweaving, as well as petit point and 3⁄4 cross stitches.
2) Threads DMC (13 skeins): ECRU, 301, 402, 640, 644, 738, 739(2), 963, 938, 3815, 3816, 3817.
❤ To make decorative stitches, you can use both ordinary muslin, and replace it with pearl or iris, or silk, metallic or satin threads. This will make your work more refined and individual.
