1. Before you sew your fabric onto the frame, or put it on a hoop, find the center. You can either: a) Fold the material in half, first lengthwise, and then sideways to give you the center. b) Use a tape measure to divide the length and the width into two, and hence measure the center. c) Measure two adjacent edges with a tape measure and divide by two to find their center threads. Then, using a single strand of floss, sew a running stitch from the edges’ centers, over four to five holes at a time. Where they cross is the center. d) Or fold the edges as above to find the center threads, and then sew into the center as above. I mark the center by slipping a spare unthreaded needle under the center thread.
2. Look at your chart for the center. Most designs have arrows half way down the sides and half way across the top and bottom. If you follow those in with your fingers you will find the center of the design. I normally mark the spot lightly with a pencil.
