I am a novice Cross Stitcher and have purchased a Thomas Kinkade printed kit. I’ve already put samples of the corresponding floss by the stitch symbol chart and taped the edges of my canvas to prevent fraying. I’m ready to start the project, but I’m noticing that the chart and the actual print on the canvas are not matching up in the count. For instance, there are more squares on the chart from a point to the edge than there are from the corresponding point on the print to the edge of the printed canvas. I”m also noticing that the chart and printed canvas aren’t really matching up from point to point either. I seem to remember my mom saying something about finding the center of the canvas and starting from there. So can someone who is practiced and knowledgable about this craft please tell me how one follows an embellished cross stitich pattern correctly?

I have 12 Peter Rabbit cross-stitch pieces my mom and I did when I was pregnant. Three years and 4 moves later, we still haven’t hung them, and my daughter wants a room in theme that wouldn’t go at all, so I am looking for something to do with them besides hanging them on the wall.

Any ideas? Thanks!
