Variations are endless. Try working diamonds in a contrasting color. You might even come up with a new stitch. Use your imagination and create new looks for this old craft.

Wash in warm water, if soiled. Rinse several times. Add one tablespoon of white vinegar in second rinse. Roll in towel to remove excess water. Do not wring. Stretch slightly with your hands to smooth out wrinkles. Iron face down on a folded towel.

Stitch finished design into the project of your choice. Add lace, edge binding, ruffles, trim or piping as desired.
