Review on 🧡 Dimension's Counted Cross Stitch Kit: Little Sports Baby Boy Birth Record, 14 Count Ivory Aida Fabric, 9x12 Inches by Heather Shaw

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The scheme is excellent, but the kit has few consumables

Beautiful design, bright and saturated colors, the scheme is quite simple for an advanced or advanced embroiderer. Even for beginners, I would say. However, I had to report this because there is not enough thread in the set to complete three stitch symbols (I embroider half stitches down one row and then the other half back the other way to make sure all stitches are even Direction). I needed at least 2-3 more skeins of each so had to buy a second set to finish the first one (once you start you can't replace it with DMC thread as it won't give you an exact match). Nevertheless, I think this model is great and perfect as a birthday present for my brother, my nephew; For that reason, I agreed with the need for a second sentence. So high marks for the pattern but bad marks for not designing the kit well enough to ensure you have enough thread to complete. This is a problem I've noticed time and time again with Dimensions kits.
