Zweigart Fein-Aida 18ct Fabric Azure Blue (5152) - Sold by the Meter

There are colors that tell a story before you even make the first stitch, and Zweigart’s Azure Blue (5152) is one of them. This mid-tone blue, intense and slightly aquamarine, immediately evokes the sea, clear skies, and moving water, making it a background that works in your favor: for nautical designs, coastal landscapes, maritime motifs, or winter scenes, it saves you from having to stitch the entire background, as the fabric itself provides it. It particularly enhances whites, off-whites, and yellows, and creates very successful combinations with corals, oranges, and earth tones.

The 18-count Fein-Aida (7 stitches/cm) allows for great precision and detail, making it ideal for defined designs and meticulous projects without sacrificing embroidery comfort. As a finer weave, the finished design takes up less space than on 14-count, which is very practical when the chart is large or you are looking for a more compact piece. Its regular structure makes counting stitches easy, making it a perfect choice for both experienced embroiderers and those looking to perfect their technique.

Made of 100% cotton by Zweigart, this fabric stands out for its quality, durability, and uniform finish, with a solid, homogeneous dye across the entire surface. Its regular structure maintains tension without warping, ensuring an impeccable finish whether using a hoop or embroidering in hand.
