Review on Textile Heritage Coaster Kit Damask by Kelsey Brown

The finished product is excellent. But the eye of this needle is tiny, and the included thread tends to snap when pulled through the needle. I went through two full strands (after separating the working strands from a full skein of 6 strands) of light green thread without making a single stitch because they snapped every time I pulled them through the eye of this needle to use. I would recommend using a different needle that you know threads easily and a high quality branded embroidery floss such as DMC instead of the ones that come in the kit. Pattern for full stitch and delicate damask backstitching is easy to understand, but instructions for red, pink and green stitching for rose backstitching "see color photo" which is tiny and not easy to see this detail.
