Review on Bouquet on Black Floral Pattern Needlepoint Kit - DIMENSIONS, 14'' x 14'' by Angela Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Canvas colors are too pale.

When I opened the package I realized that I would not have as much joy as I had hoped. Although I love challenging jobs, the colors on the canvas were so faded I could barely make out the colors and there were many tiny areas, each requiring a few stitches. I separated all the colors and put myself in the best possible light with a marker and started. 1/2 later I was almost in tears. I missed @ a week and then tried again. I managed to sew several adjacent flowers into one flower, but it took me so long to give up. 2 weeks later I tried again and finally gave up. I've embroidered and sewed dumbbells intermittently for 25 years and this is the first time I've given up. Seamstresses, save your money (and your eyesight). Stay away from it.

Pros
  • Colorful printed cotton mesh embroidery fabric and easy instructions make embroidering this vibrant floral design easy and fun!
Cons
  • little things
