BFC0843 QIH Stained Glass - Mountain Vista

Hi Lori - Our Stained Glass designs are the easiest of our large embroideries! You create each section as you would stitch any design. then you trim the excess fabric and just zig zag stitch the sections together. Full instructions are included and we're always here if you have questions as you go along. We weren't including Isacord in our conversions when we did this set, but when you are ready just email me (you can use the contact page) and I can send you a link to convert to Isacord.

Thanks! Suz

Hi Gina, I use OOK Artist nails to hang most of my wall hangings. They are a fine nail with a very small pretty gold and black head. They make a tiny hole in the wall that barely shows, but can be touched up with a tiny dab of paint or marker. Search for OOK 50614 Blue Steel Pro Nails Tidy Tins on Amazon to see what they look like. I put one in each corner of a wall hanging. Antoher thing we use here is called gaffer tape. Photographers use it to mount things to take pictures. Rick uses it for the photos sometimes, so I've tried it on the walls. It hasn't hurt either paint or wall paper and I've had things hanging with it for over a year. I just make some loops with it, stick it to the back of the wall hanging and press it on the wall. I don't care for hangers and rods because I have a lot hanging on my walls and it tends to make things look messy. I use them for certain projects where it just looks right for them. Suz

Hi Gina, We used regular cotton fabric. You want something with a nice firm weave that doesn't stretch at all. Something like Kona cotton or cotton broadcloth is great. We use two layers of medium tear away stabilizer for this type of designs. If you tend to have trouble with puckering, I recommend wrapping your hoops. Let me know if you need more information about this.
Thank you - Suz
