Review on Tobin DW2814 Counted 16 Inch Serenity by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Don't make any assumptions.

Don't like it but it's my fault enough not to be returning it. I haven't embroidered in 60 years. Back then the fabric was printed - that fabric doesn't exist and apparently that's the norm these days. Based on the second answer to my question about removing part of the background flower pattern to make the wording more visible, I thought the pattern was printed. I also thought from the picture that all the inscriptions are the same color. Didn't look closely enough. Again, this is my fault, so I'll buy dental floss - probably dark blue or purple. Then I went to YouTube to find out how to do cross stitches (which should have been done first - yeah, didn't show the printed design and showed I needed an embroidery hoop. I couldn't remember or never used it 60 years ago In other words, make sure you know what you're doing before taking on an unfamiliar project! If I were to do this I would make my own design on graph paper, first buy the floss, fabric and frame, not the kit.

Pros
