User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars A Beautiful End Product
This cross-stitch kit comes with the Aida cloth, adequate thread, a needle, and the instructions. There are actually two charts in the instructions, one that shows the cross stitches and one that shows the bulk of the details. The colors are hard to tell apart and there’s a lot of detailing that was kind of difficult for me (I’m new at this.) But the end product was so beautiful that it was worth the trouble.

5 Stars Very pretty!
I have not yet started this cross stitch but can’t wait to! I am writing this review with the purpose of letting the buyer know that there is no thread sorter included in this kit. (Just a little fact I wish I had known ahead of time.) Also note that Joann Fabrics takes an extremely long time to ship, and the product took 2 weeks to get to my house, which was 2 days over the latest arrival date. Other than that, the products arrived in great condition!

4 Stars Fun
If you get this product I’d advise getting a floss card, there is no card with this set and the blues and greens are hard to tell apart. The floss comes in two bundles and there is a guide for each bundle so don’t take the bundles apart (like I did) and then have to figure out what is green and what is dark yellow green. Since I mess up a bit on these projects try to scan or photocopy the pattern so that if you need to start from scratch you have a brand new guide. The color mix for this product is rich and vibrant, I love it. It doesn’t get five stars because of the lack of a floss card and there are two direction papers one for the guide and the other for the floss colors. I prefer all the directions on one paper.
