I think this picture is adorable. I started doing cross stitch to help me quit smoking 20 years ago. I can't wait to get started on this kit. It comes with everything you need except a hoop and a frame.

Really this kit is quite good. I would love it if cross stitch kits separated the floss for you instead of making you pull it apart. Be warned the light green and green are almost identical!!
The directions could be easier to follow but all in all this is a pretty good kit.

I had this item sent to a friend for her birthday party and was amazed -- the product arrived within 48 hours of my order. Unfortunately, it arrived with an invoice and without the least indication of why it was sent... but that's not the end of the world. Arrived in beautiful condition and is really a high-quality, gorgeous project.

I ordered this item 1 1/2 weeks ago when it said "hurry only 1 left". I recieved an email from Amazon this morning saying they could not get a response from the company and encouraged me to contact them directly. This afternoon Stuff 4 Scrpbooking wrote and said they were out of the item and would not be getting more. Amazon emailed shortly after and said the ordered had been cancled. Yet, if you shop Amazon the item still appears as available from Stuff 4 Scrapbooking but now it says hurry - only 3 left!

Dimensions Counted Cross Stitch, Bear Tales Review

Dimensions Counted Cross Stitch, Bear Tales
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've just started learning embroidery and cross stitch, and I had a lot of fun with this kit. The stitches include half cross, french knots, chain stitch and back stitch, so I learned a lot. The stitches required anything from one thread to four threads at once, and sometimes mixed two colors together, something I had thought about trying. The instructions were helpful with everything from stitch types to framing, and the chart was very detailed so I could see exactly where the chain stitches started and stopped. The thread was beautifully shaded and the finished product is amazing. I can't believe I managed to produce this with my pitiful beginner skills.
I haven't done that many kits, but this one took me about three months to complete in my spare time.
Well worth every penny. I will be looking for more kits by this manufacturer.

Loved Charles Wysocki puzzles....now love his needlework/cross stitch kits. This Cozy Cove is just another of his unique paintings. It draws you into the setting and makes you want to be a part of the neighborhood....green lush grass, quaint summer cottages and a beautiful peaceful sea in the background...just a place I would like to be right now. Since I can't be..I will do the next best thing and spend hours stitching the scene...that will make me at least feel a part of this wonderful and enchanting landscape.

Dimensions No Count Cross Stitch, Cinderella Review

Dimensions No Count Cross Stitch, Cinderella
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you're not a dyed-in-the-wool cross-stitcher, this is for you! Most of the piece is already beautifully painted in soft colors. The areas that you stitch are marked, you do not have to count anything. As a long-time stitcher I felt I could have done with more stitch detail, (i.e.- it was very easy to work!) but I can add colors and do some additional stitching on it but it is not necessary, it is a beautiful piece just as is. This would be awesome on a little girl's bedroom wall! And the adorable girl on it is just darling, a real cutie. I enjoyed stitching this, enjoyed giving it to our 4-year old grand daughter, and love seeing it in her room as a reminder Grandma's always thinking of her. Very very cute. You could frame it in almost any soft color and it will look perfect.

This is the very first cross-stitch I've ever done and I love it! It wasn't super easy but it was pretty enough that it forced me to keep at it until it was finished. Larger patterns were too intimidating and so many patterns are just not my style, but this was perfect. I highly recommend this one to cross-stitchers of any experience level.

I haven't done cross-stitch in years and decided I would start stitching again. Saw this kit and thought this would be perfect! I am very disappointed with this product because I had to sort the threads into their own little groups, (blues, greens, pinks, etc)without any kind of numbers on threads. Can you tell me how to separate 5 different colors of pink and know for sure that you are using the correct color. It was exhausting separating the colors and trying to figure out what was what. Never again!!! Would have been nice to know this beforehand, that the colors aren't marked for identification.

I am extremely pleased with the quality of this needlepoint product. I like the way the threads are separated and colour coded. That means I can eliminate that step. The colours on the mat are clear, bold and it is easy to see the variations. I will order again from this company. Great job!

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
While simpler than others I have done, there is so much of the blue especially, this one got a bit boring. It is still b eautiful and any mistakes are easy to hide or account for without changing the appearance. I'd recommend this one for moderate cross-stitchers as I believe those just beginning with this handiwork would find it too boring to hold their interest for long. For those who have done this sort of thing before, it is easy to do and can be fun.
