Love it. This elderly lady has never had anyone demo this method so clearly. So appreciative of your kindness. Domo!
Okay, wow. I love cross stitching and always wondered how to do it onto clothes, will certainly give this a try. thank you!
Thank yoi Michaela, we are glad you found it useful!
I have cross stitched for years but never on fabric with canvas. So thank you for the technique. 👍
My mother has been talking about this method but she couldn't explain it to me clearly. She found your video and sent it to me. Thank you very much! Learned something very special today.
Say thank you to your mother!
I have pulled threads out with the help of tweezers especially for the tight ones. Very pretty.
I used to embroider my jeans back in the 1970s. Takes me back. Thank you.
oh my goodness.... thank you Arne & Carlos.. a revelation!
That brings back memories. I did this in the '60th and '70th. Learned it when I did my Coupeuse education. Made several collars for Blouses. Loved doing it.
What a wonderful idea!! Thank you for sharing with us. I really love you both♡ From Japan
I love You Both! The amount of creativity and patience is so inspiring🌹❤️❣️
I will show this to my daughter she loves creating her patterns!
Thank You 😊
What a beautiful embroidery idea! I never would have known this existed, and now I have so many ideas :) Thank you for taking the time and effort to exhibit this tutorial.
Je vous aime . Merci pour tous ces beaux ouvrages ! ☺
Wow, that's beautiful, thank you so much, I can't wait to try it!
Thank you for a great idea. When I first did this you could buy a product called waste canvas. If I can find the waste canvas this will be my granddaughters Christmas dress. I love your videos and books.
Thank you sooo much for sharing! I can’t wait to try this myself 🤩. Your skirt is stunning 😍
Another wonderful video! Now IS the time to start our holiday crafts! Thanks once again! 🙋🏻
Thank you so much for posting this! I can't wait to try it out!
i have been wanting to do this for so long! thank you!!
You guys are amazing idk how I got here but I'm glad i ended up here. You guys inspired me to do some embrodery
And I love that reindeer pattern. Thank you ❤️
OMG! What a fantastic idea!
I've been looking for this for so long! Thank you!
Wow! that is a fantastic skirt and an awesome tutorial. thank you for sharing!
I’m so happy to find this tutorial! I’ve been doing cross stitch like this for two years and have such a hard time explaining the technique to people!
I started cross stitch about a week ago and the idea of putting it on clothes makes me so excited, but I want to practice a bit more before I try. Thank you for sharing this method.
Thank you for watching
That was awesome. Very clever. Thanks for the tip.
That was simply fascinating! I have never known how cross stitch could be done so neatly on anything other than a canvas. Now I know that you must have the canvas! And then to see how it was removed. When you first started embroidering the canvas and the fabric together I could not wrap my head around how this was going to work. Brilliant! I really enjoyed this video, thank you so much for sharing it.
You are welcome, thank you for watching!
I just came across this vlog this evening. The skirt is an elegant work of art. I don’t know how to knit, but I can do embroidery, cross stitch, and needlepoint. They way you cross stitched the pattern on the fabric was absolutely genius. And as Carlos said, you could do this with any pattern. Thank you for the detailed tutorial. I have been following you for over a year and have loved spending many inspiring hours with you both. Sending hugs!
We are glad you liked this tutorial, we made it ages ago.
This chanel is a GOLD MINE!!! Thank you soo much for sharing the tips the world needs more people like you guys! Keep up the good work!

What a clever technique! Thank you so much for sharing this.
You are welcome!
Lovely! What a beautiful idea!
exactly what I was going to say! ☺
Thanks for the refresher course on waste canvas guys. My Dad's in a rest home and I need to id his clothes and other things. This would be nice and soft when it touches his skin.
You are welcome Rhonda!
That looks great guys. Wow. I'm speechless
Thank you Scarlett!
I was so happy to come across your video because I didn't want my garment to get wet after all the work I did on it (which, because of the glue used, has to be rinsed before removing the waste canvas) but, using your method, my project turned out amazing! Thank you for sharing this!
You are welcome!
This is an amazing technique! Thank you so much!!

I was thinking of buying magic canvas.
Seeing you guys do this, maybe i will buy a magic canvas for a bigger project.
Thank you, and the skirt is so pretty!
Thank you!
hi! it's been a year, and since then, i never bought magic canvas.
i cross stitched t shirts for my family, all by using waste aida like how you demonstrate.
thanking you once again for showing me the waste aida method!
subscribed!
very very very good tutorial.
ps: canvusssss
Thank you!
very good video! :)
Tusen takk. Jeg lurte på hvordan jeg skulle gjøre dette, og videoen var veldig godt laget og hjalp meg mye! Ollu giitu dutnje!
Så bra at den var til hjelp!
Very very helpful
Glad to be of help!
3:22-3:25 'stitch it down to the fabric'. You can also say 'baste it to the fabric', which is the same word we use for brushing the juices on the turkey while it's in the oven! But I must say I wish I could speak Norwegian as well as you do English! Greetings from Pasadena, CA:)
Wow
I love your videos and patterns when are u available in canada ?
Arne and Carlos
Thank you for this video
God bless both of you
I want to ask something, are we use the same technique if we do it on a t shirt? Thank you.
Wow very nice
Thank you!
I have worked with waste canvas and was not pleased with the feel; grabby to point of tackiness. I would be willing to try the regular canvas. Would pulling some of the threads beforehand make it easier without causing issues with the quality of the pattern? just a thought. Keep up the great videos!
Skirt is gorgeous! How many pleats does it have? One reindeer stitches 3 pleats? Thanks for the chart!
What a beautiful damask skirt! I love the color!!!! But, the work of pulling Aida cloth is so time consuming. You may want to research the actual 'waste canvas' made especially for this craft. It can be pulled out very easily. Comes in several thread counts. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. Blessings, ^__^
Thanks for your comment. This is actually a sablé skirt. As for the canvas, we couldn't get waste canvas in our local craft store, so we had to make do with Aida, which is what they had available. Indeed, we agree that waste canvas is much easier to use than Aida, but to show the technique, it is still doable with Aida.
Appreciate your clarification about the skirt fabric. It is so beautiful! Enjoying the Q and A segments. (from Kansas) ^__^
I read once that some waste canvas removes easier when it’s wet too, and I tried it on a cotton tshirt and it seemed to help some with the removal ... but obviously that would depend on the fabrics and string you’re using if the colors might bleed or you want to avoid getting it wet at all.
Thank you!
Tutorial starts around 3:20 if anyone wants to skip ahead
I going to try it but I think water soluble canvas is way easier
Tessiegril Yes, it's easier to use a water soluble canvas, obviously. However, this is the alternative option, for those who may not find a water soluble canvas in their local crafts store. This is also the more traditional way to do it, which may be interesting to know about. Also, the silk fabric in the video can not be wet as it's too delicate and "dry clean only".
I use Aida cloth all the time as waste canvas as it's the only thing available in this area.
Would this work in a t-shirt? Or would the embroidery deform the shirt to much?
You could do a test first.
I have a 6”X8” cross stitch piece, a good friend made for me.
I want to sew the whole panel
To a shirt. How would I go about doing that? Does it need padding under it?
Hi Carlos and Arne,I am wondering is there such a d
Do you ever use soluble cross stitch fabric to work on? x
Yes, but this is what we had at the day of filming. Also, the fabric is a silk that can not be washed in the machine, so a water soluble canvas would have been out of the question for this particular fabric.
Wondering if dipping it in water to get rid of the starch/glue helps to remove the threads 🤔
Could help
My mom do this, it’s work it
Yes!
how do you go about using the pattern, though? will it be placed between the waste canvas & the fabric?
No, you will have to look at the pattern as a reference. Just like normal cross stitch.
Hi Arne, Carlos! Oh my word! I was wondering how you were going to remove the canvas. How much did you sell the skirts for...$10,000?!
You can remove a zero and then some...
ARNE & CARLOS The skirt is magnificent, a labor of love by you both.
Do you prefer using waste canvas or water soluble canvas? What is your opinion on water soluble canvas?
Thank you
Why not use water soluble cross stitch fabric?
GarysOnlyGal *** That's obviously an option too, of course! But in this case, the silk skirt fabric we used in the video is so delicate it can not be put in water as it is a "dry clean only" garment that would be ruined in water. So there is no way a water soluble canvas could be used here. Also, in case that the water soluble canvas is not available in the local shop, THIS is the traditional, old school way to do it, which we think a lot of people might be interested in learning about.
Can you embroider on cross stitch
I will make twist gard cushon
Great!
I could'nt find the pattern.
Where is the reindeer on your website? Thank you!
Hi, have you looked in the blog section?
@@ARNECARLOS Yes, found it. Thank you! You guys are so fun! Love your videos!
I cross stitched on a hoodie but every time I try to pull the strings of the Aida cloth they snap, is anyone else having this problem?
We haven't had that problem, only that it took a while to pull a part.
Ya I’m thinking maybe it’s cause my Aida cloth was from a old set and it wasn’t my newer cloth, I ended up just cutting it as close to the cross stitch as I could and I pushed the cloth under the cross stitch
Ooops ... I thought it was a Christmas Tree skirt. Regardless, it's lovely, but a lot of work pulling out those threads.
I just use a dissolvable fabric lol
Yes, you can use that as well!
they make a cross stitch canvas that is water soluble , this is unnecessary, there's a easier way
Puffy Jo If you use a water soluble canvas on the skirt in the video, it will be completely ruined! This is an extremely delicate silk fabric which is "dry clean only".
ARNE & CARLOS I realized that afterwards , yes you are right, I should have known better . I used to sew as well. I am truely sorry for my comment
