Justa sooi dhaaga and no design 🖕🏽

E mio desiderio, e bellissimo.

Muy bonito y comprado a buen precio

contente de cet achat. Les kits Dimensions sont de très bonne qualité. Tout est fourni : toile a broder aîda 7points, aiguilles, fils coton a broder, fil métallisé, molleton, diagramme sur papier de bonne qualité. Les symboles sont un peu petits, mais lisibles.

Stunning, beautiful and the threads come pre-sorted and the Aida fabric is well made (no end pieces or ragged fraying edges). I would say it is not for the faint of heart - definitely an experienced stitcher only. Many of the colours are of a 'one thread of shade x and one thread of shade y' so you end up with a lot more different colours than there are colours initially provided. Invest in a large thread holder for this! Additionally - Dimensions kits tend to not have quite enough thread to cover making any mistakes and their colour codes are unique to them - i.e. not DMC or Anchor. There are some conversion tables online though.

These are the perfect ornaments for someone who has "been around the block" with cross-stitching, who wants to create a real work of art, not just another 2D Santa face saying "Ho Ho Ho". :) They're absolutely gorgeous! The cloth and thread are high quality, the colors are very rich (there are many, many of them!!), and the patterns are pretty well done/readable/large (as far as cross-stitch patterns go). The thread came pre-sorted, which was a big help with so many close colors! (I just recommend putting them immediately onto labeled cardboard bobbins or something, to tell them apart and to keep them untangled.) As something of a veteran cross-stitcher myself, I've complicated the design even further by implementing quarter-, half-, and three-quarter-stitches where none are suggested, and it's really crisping up the corners! (The pattern simply uses full cross-stitches and half-stitches for fill designs, so everything is done by blocks of color; this is the only failing--in my opinion--of the pattern, but if you've cross-stitched much it's pretty easy to use intuition to remedy it if you care to. On the other hand, the cloth grid is so small, it makes less difference, and makes it harder to do the teenier stitches, which is doubly why I imagine they skipped them. However, I'm a perfectionist.) I love that this gives me a "big" project that can be broken into small pieces, particularly for portability and ease of handling (I cut the fabric into 6 pieces and stitch one ornament at a time on a 5" hoop), but also so I feel some real progress is being made as I complete an entire ornament (even though it's only a portion of the whole project). It is a pretty small Aida count, though, so I don't recommend getting it if you have trouble seeing very small stitches, or don't have a good magnification system to remedy it,
