Review on Dimensions 35213 Gold Collection Hot Air Balloon Glow 🎈 Counted Cross Stitch Kit, 18 Count Ivory Aida, 12'' x 16'' by Wendy Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Time-consuming, detailed, but beautiful!

I really liked this set. It took me about 8 months to fully finish it but I really enjoyed every step and it turned out beautifully. It's a lot of fun, but definitely not for beginners. You need to count and measure carefully, as there are very intricate patterns with flowers. It definitely requires attention to detail and patience! But with these skills you will really love this set! There are more than enough threads to complete and you will have plenty left. I think I was afraid that I would just run out of one color. The only problem I had was having to buy my own needles. Parts of this kit require you to thread 4 threads through 1 needle, which was definitely next to impossible with the included needles (even with a needle threader). I broke the needles that came with the kit but luckily I had others on hand. I also bought some extra needles to use with only 4 strands. All this to say that I had a great time creating this work and it came out exactly as I expected. I can't wait to finish it and put it on display. Highly recommended!
