Instructions

Prewash overalls to prevent the dye running into the cross stitch.

Centre rectangle of waste canvas at back of overalls, where straps meet (or in desired position) and baste in place.

Following the chart provided, stitch your chosen design using 2 strands of thread for cross-stitch and 1 strand for back stitch.

When stitching is complete, remove the basting, then pull out the waste canvas, thread by thread.
