I love Moira Blackburn samplers and would like to start The Beehive Sampler. She gives no indication of the fabric she used other than "16 ct. aide". I prefer linen. What can I use???

Carolann, you could use a 32 count evenweave linen and stitch over two fabric threads. The stitching would turn out the same size. You may have fewer choices of color available, however, than in the Aida range.
