Just out of curiosity, what count fabric did you do these on? I'm planning a trip to the craft store pretty soon because I want to get the materials to start on World 1. I've done some experimenting on 14 and 18, and I'm leaning towards 18 count. For one, I don't want the finished product to be massively huge (well, it's going to be huge no matter what, I just want to mitigate that a little bit lol), and two it seems two strands cover the fabric better on 18 count.

I always use 14. I like using 2 threads and I find that it looks too bulky using 2 threads on 18 count.

What a huge project... i love it !!! I can't wait to see them finished !!

I tend to use 3 threads for 18, and 4 for 14. I find that less than that and it looks more obviously like little crosses, whereas I like a solid pixel look.

I'm really going to try to put up pics of world 1 but it's not finished yet

I'm working on Map 1 (aka have been for a year) and I use 3 threads on 18 as well. I think it looks prettier in the end.
