Review on 🌺 Dimensions Floral Counted Cross Stitch Kit - Peonies and Delphiniums, 18 Count White Aida, 12" x 15 by Lori Aguirre

This is the first vyshyvanka I've picked for many years and I really like it. It's a lot easier to do with a roll frame than a hoop, but I manage with the hoop so I don't spend money on kids' shoes. The colors are beautiful and I appreciate the pre-sorted cards, but I would suggest having a more typical punched card on hand as once you've pulled the thread out of position you can't reinsert it. The Aida fabric creases fairly easily, and I iron it again carefully so the stitching is even. This is definitely an intermediate cross stitch and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who hasn't done any others as it would be very frustrating to read the pattern without some experience. It will probably take a few months, but I'm enjoying the task. - Lauren, Ben's wife
