Review on Embroidery Beginner Patterns Needlework Beautiful by Gelin Battle

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Big craft project

holy cow, that's a lot more than I thought it would be. To be honest this will be a months long project for me. This is normal, but be aware that for a beginner or someone like me returning to cross stitch after many years, this pattern can be overwhelming. The printed pattern is clear and easy to see. The differences between the thread colors are quite clear and they included a color code on the fabric. The included paper code is huge and divided into sections. There are needles in the kit but they are thin with a narrow eye - I prefer my slightly larger needles with a big eye. It's just easier for me. I suspect the final design will be great, so I'm willing to spend months sewing it.

Pros
  • stamp sets
Cons
  • unreliable
