Has anyone ever tried "gold dusted" aida?
I bought some gold aida fabric with sparkles in it, and I'm considering doing a big project on it but I'll be upset if it doesn't turn out well /: Has anyone else used gold/sparkly aida before? If so how did the project turn out? this is what it looks like!I would like to try this sometime.I would only use it for a little project like a biscornu.On a big project I like the picture to be the focus, not the fabric yes, i made a christmas picture a few years ago for my mother in law Following this thread Thanks for the info! no sorry, never heard of this

No, didn´t yet, but I´m addicted by the Zweigart Silver Aida and I´m looking for it to buy. But here in Moscow couldn´t find yet. Won´t give up. :)

Please somebody show a finished work. I fear that the fabric outshines the stitches. Thanks so much for sharing! Very nice thanks for sharing I used the silver version before and it turned out okay but it's not my favorite piece. Can you stitch an ornament or something small on a piece of it to try it out first? I have used both the gold and silver, gold for Angels for Christmas and the silver for quite a big project, it does not overpower the stitching, only if you are using metallic thread in the pattern you have to be sure it shows up.
