🦒 Tobin Giraffe Girl Counted Cross Stitch Kit - 11 x 14 Size, Multi-Colored Review

Cross stitch finished except for personalization. It's a bit larger than the 11x14 frame, so now I have to frame it, which will probably be expensive. Why can't this company stick to standard size? This has happened to me many times. Although I like the finished cross stitch.

I had to buy new threads because the thread in the set fell apart when embroidering a cross for lack of a better term. It was one thing if it was one yarn color or even two, but there were several and I had to get it done quickly, so I couldn't wait for the three weeks it would take the company to ship a new yarn. I bought another set from them, the same with thread. The pattern is great, but it will be an expensive pattern.

This is a really nice picture but there were a few things I didn't like about the kit itself. First, as mentioned, the chart is very difficult to read even when zoomed in.

I contacted the manufacturers of this kit and they declined, saying they had no complaints about it. I went and bought DMC threads that matched the colors listed on the instructions. It was easy to tell the difference in colors and yarn quality. The DMC filament I purchased looked like the picture on the kit…

I post a review of the scheme. It comes in a set and, as you can tell from the color scheme, is designed for a girl. I fell in love with the picture, but I wanted to embroider it for a boy. I replaced the pink pajamas with blue (DMC colors 798, 799, 800) and the cuffs and bib are trimmed in light green (#955). The tail bow is blue, the heart is blue, etc. Instead of the pink spots on the giraffe, I used tan/gold. I used the same colors for the mane and tail. I replaced flowers with toys using…
