Great haul. For the raw edged cross stitch you could seal the edges with fray check. It’s a liquid and has been around for years

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Thanks for the tip

[@heatherbirdsill5532]

When i used to cross stitch, I used some stuff called “Fray check” on the edges of the canvas. I found it in the sewing section of the store.

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Thanks so much for the info. I’ll check it out.

Back when I used to do cross-stitch, I never saw a kit with serged edges. I use to put wide washi tape around the edge of the aida cloth to keep it from fraying. If you could try that maybe you would enjoy stitching that awesome cat one.

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Thank so much for the idea

[@jcklg5]

Never tried the double sided ones! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Thanks for watching! 🌸💕🌺

I came here to say what everyone else has. I’ve always used masking tape on mine. Sergers are newer technology and cross stitch has been around a lot longer so there are options if you want to keep it. I’m not sure where you are but I’m a fellow Oregonian up in the southern Willamette valley.

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Hi neighbor - I'm in the Rogue Valley - Thanks so much for letting me know about tape. I didn't even think of that,.🌸❤🌺🌺

[@silverdawnintx]

Yes, try Fray Check or some type of glue on the edges. You could even put washi tape on the edges. Do this and you can keep it.

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Ok thanks!

[@Katielovesspookycrafts]

Hi, just a thought, if you really don't want to send that cross stitch back. I used to do alot of counted and I would take either painters tape or paper tape and put that around my edges. I would set that fabric halfway across the tape width and fold the rest over the edge. Just an idea.

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

Great idea!

[@alisonrobertson2433]

Love the table cloth ❤
How do you tell if its double sided??

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

You can actually see the tape. A lot of the time the cover sheet will be solid white. And often times it has a strong odor. It’s also very sticky.

[@louiseoneil5745]

Other than the smell, how can you tell if it's double sided adhesive and why don't you like it?

[@DiamondsByTeeda]

You can actually see the tape. It's double sided tape. Usually it comes with a white cover sheet, but sometimes you get one with a clear sheet. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching,
