Baltimore Album -- Afghan Series
fits 4x4 hoop for perimeter designs,
and 6x10 hoop for center design

 

Our model was stitched on the
Alphabet Afghan by Charles Craft (1-800-277-0980).
This pre-fringed afghan is 54" x 60" and has twenty-six decoratively woven blocks.
Each 5.5" square block has a tastefully woven and easy to see border
which leaves a 3.75" square embroidery field --
just perfect for our Baltimore Album designs and your 4" x 4" hoop!!
Look for the Alphabet Afghan in the needlework section by the DMC floss.
It is also widely available at Michael's.


**PROJECT IDEA**

Twenty-six of these machine embroidered cross stitch designs
are sized to perfectly fit in the
distinctly woven outer blocks of the Alphabet Afghan,
leaving the afghan's center just begging for a larger center design!
Using a cutaway stabilizer,
center one stitchable woven square
of the afghan in your hoop and embroider it.
On a loosely woven fabric such as an afghan,
it is important to use a cutaway stabilizer.
This will prevent your cross stitches from becoming distorted.
If your afghan will be used very much,
I suggest that you cut a square of cotton muslin
to cover the back of each embroidered square.


TIP: Be sure to have the weight of the afghan evenly distributed
and NOT disrupting the motion of your hoop
when you are embroidering the designs.
This will help assure a perfect stitchout.
