Tiny stitch size, takes forever to finish

I would like to know how small the stitches are in this material. So this is the fifth Christmas stocking I've made and it's the smallest stitch size. The chart is color coded as well as symbols. Everything seems to be of good quality.

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • -

The set arrived on time as promised. I .

The set arrived very promptly and as promised. Just wanted other buyers to know that I ran out of thread for a few colors. I saw this comment from others so I was very careful when flashing it. Also, for a work like this stocking, I used backing material instead of the felt that came with it. It turned out great!

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Not everything is as good as it says

Arrived quickly and in excellent condition

This cross stitch stocking was dispatched quickly and arrived in good condition. It was accurately described in the sellers ads and all threads and materials were intact. We are satisfied with the product, we will order again from this seller. The instructions are clear and easy to read, which is not always the case with cross stitch instructions. We are happy with our purchase.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Dimensions Santa's Journey

I have been embroidering with Dimensions sets for many years and am a highly skilled craftsman. I am disappointed in the quality of the thread in this kit. It wears lightly and isn't as premium as Dimensions normally are. On the plus side, I like the way they sort the threads in this set. I've NEVER seen it sorted that way, and every time I work with threads I wish they could use this kind of sorter. Despite the quality of the thread, I recommend this product.

Pros
  • A Good Thing
Cons
  • Some Mistakes

Extremely detailed: Needlework

I knit stockings for the whole family and have only recently started. I was shocked at how small the amount of Aida was (for a stocking!) and it took a little longer than I expected. The colors are great and the chart is easy to follow. The chart spans three pages, which can be unwieldy at times, and the overlapping stitches from chart to chart are *not* marked. Even if finding the place is not very difficult, I would not recommend this to a beginner for this reason and because of the extremely

Pros
  • Worthy achievement
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

I have made two of these stockings and have been very happy with each one. They become such a part of your life because of the time commitment. For me, they have become a way to relax every day. The hardest part about this project is sewing real stockings out of it. I'm not a seamstress at all, so I struggled with that for my first stocking. The second stocking went much smoother! I highly recommend replacing the felt that is included as the lining with good quality velvet or other quality…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • old

Nice stocking! Hopefully what I found will help someone.

This stocking is beautiful and I've had many compliments even though it's not quite finished yet. The color variations and details really make the image stand out. I consider myself a beginner in cross stitch (I was good at it but had never worked on anything of this size and complexity before). I've been working on this jerky for about 7 months and almost all the cross stitches are done and I'm working on filling in the background with half stitches and I still have to do most of the reverse…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • A dubious purchase for seniors
