Very beautiful book with original and refined drawings. Unfortunately my rating is low because at the time of the realization I realized that the designer uses a particularly elaborate cross stitch. The reproduction on Aida canvas is extremely difficult for me, perhaps the linen texture was more suitable .... Also the legend of the colors is a world in itself because I had to convert it to DMC from an Internet site (I did not find anything on the Casa Cenina site either).

Hello and thank you for your review! We are sorry that it is negative - even though you yourself write that the book is "very beautiful" - because if you had sent us an email we would have helped you very willingly, both with the conversion of threads, and with the one from linen to aida which, among other things, is easier than it seems, because 28ct linen (which has about 11 threads per cm), corresponds to aida 55, while 32ct linen (which has about 13 threads per cm) corresponds to aida 64. We hope however that these indications can be useful to you to try to use this book again ;-) For the threads, the author actually uses V&H cotton threads, or the Danish Fru Zippe: two brands for which there is no official conversion with DMC, but you can find several reliable ones online, which we would have provided you with without problems. Thanks again and best regards.
