Please note: natural fabrics such as linen and cotton are dyed in batches and come in different counts (with more or fewer threads per 1 cm in the case of linen and evenweaves, and more or fewer squares per 10 cm in the case of Aida). Different production batches and different counts may show color variations, even when the fabric is under the same color name. In the textile industry, this is considered completely normal, especially for so-called “vintage” or antiqued fabrics. Therefore, if your project requires a specific shade, we invite you to contact us before placing your order, also because the online image is purely indicative and may appear very different from reality, depending on the display which it is viewed on.

Description

Murano, also sold as Murano Lugana, is a cotton and modal evenweave with a soft sheen: pleasant to handle, firm enough to keep its shape in a hoop or frame, and with threads that are easy to count. It works well for samplers, framed pieces, cushions, pouches and borders for table linen, and for any counted thread project that calls for a fine fabric without the stiffness of canvas.

Cross stitch is usually worked over two threads with two strands of stranded cotton; one strand is enough for backstitch and fine detail. Use a size 26 tapestry needle. Zigzag or overcast the raw edges before starting and allow a few centimetres around the design for framing and finishing.

I find that this canvas is really pleasant to work and not only lends itself perfectly to the cross point but also to all the other embroidery techniques counted thread. As usual, the Cenini treat us in a velvet glove !!! Who knows what the future will show whether the embroiderers appreciate this product you can not even have the colored pieces (I've seen on the color chart and really nice colors). Thanks, smiles M-Myo
