Materials

To complete this cross-stitch pattern, you will need the following materials:

* Aida cloth (14-count or 16-count) * Embroidery floss in the following colors: white, ivory, pink, purple, green, and blue * Embroidery needle * Scissors * Hoop (optional)

Instructions

1. Begin by centering the Aida cloth in the hoop. 2. Cut a length of embroidery floss and thread it through the needle. 3. Start stitching in the center of the design. The first stitch should be a half-stitch. To make a half-stitch, bring the needle up from the back of the fabric and insert it into the next hole. Bring the needle back down through the fabric, but do not pull the floss all the way through. Instead, leave a small loop on the back of the fabric. 4. Repeat step 3 to complete the first half-stitch. 5. To complete the second half-stitch, bring the needle back up through the hole where you started the first half-stitch. Then, insert the needle into the next hole and bring it back down through the fabric. Pull the floss all the way through to secure the stitch. 6. Continue stitching in this manner until the design is complete. 7. Once the design is complete, knot the floss and trim the ends. 8. Frame the cross-stitch and display it in your home.

Tips

Here are a few tips for completing this cross-stitch pattern:

* Use a hoop to hold the Aida cloth taut while you are stitching. This will help to prevent the fabric from puckering. * Be sure to use the correct tension when stitching. If the stitches are too tight, the fabric will pucker. If the stitches are too loose, the design will not be as crisp. * Take your time and enjoy the process. Cross-stitch is a relaxing and rewarding craft.

This "On Your Wedding Day" cross-stitch pattern is a beautiful and unique way to commemorate your special day. The finished product will be a cherished keepsake that you can enjoy for years to come.
