a countable weave fabric. It is easy to make the stitches even in size because you sew by code onto the special chequed cross stitch cloth also called the aida cloth.

In Stamped Cross Stitch, the stitcher stitches over the stamped patterns on a printed or stamped fabric. You will have to be more skillful in keeping the stitches even throughout.
