Review on Dimensions Gold Collection Counted Cross Stitch Kit: Treasured Friend Teapot - 18 Count Beige Aida - 6'' x 6'' by Shantel Griffin

The design is great and all my friends love it. The reason The Treasure Kettle gets four stars instead of five is due to some shortcomings in the chart. The doily stitches were scattered in the shadows under the lace, the letters were spaced a bit awkwardly, the green stitches were randomly placed behind the lazy daisy leaves, and the lace took a long time to create as it was segmented by the topstitching (maybe is it should be shell stitches?). There are also LOTS of French knots and lazy daisies in this set (stitched loops like lettering etc). If you're not a fan of either, you can tell if the kit is any good without them. In short, this kit is great if you're doing it for a friend (which you most likely will) and don't mind the downsides. If you do it for other purposes, you might get a little frustrated changing it.
