DimensionsGold Collection Counted Cross Stitch Kit, Morning Lake, Ivory Aida, 7'' x 5'', 18 Count

You can never go wrong with Dimensions kit. Very vibrant colors, plenty of floss. I have made some mistakes and I still have lots of leftover. This is my very first full coverage. Don't let the size fool you, its only 5x7 but its a LOT. Most of it calls for 3 and 4 strands, there's also lots of combination of colors. The instruction is very easy to understand you just have to be mindful of it. This took me months to finish, but that's cause it is so tedious that I have to put it down a couple of times. But it is so worth it once finished.

Wife is working on this now. It was a Christmas present. She loves needlepoint Nouveau.UPDATE: The threads OEM name is Dimension, which is hard to find. It comes from the China OEM. There is a conversion chart (http://www.cyberstitchers.com/stitching_tools/floss_conversion_charts/dimensions_to_dmc/page3of5/) to help find the same colors in a DMC thread but they are not really the same colors. The kit even says their thread is custom colored.This kit does not have enough thread of several of the colors to complete it. The thread organizer looks like it was marked correctly but it doesn’t match the number of threads called out on the chart or the key on the back of it. Because the kit is so inexpensive and we felt trying to get in touch with the overseas OEM would be a hassle and take gobs of time, we just bought a second kit, delivered in 2 days for another $7+ dollars. Hope this information and work around helps others who also appreciate the design.And yes, those are home made needleminders. The bronze looking one is a necklace charm from Russia the wife ordered online and had to sign for. The other is a charm from the PAWS organization for donating to them. We bought magnets and glue on Amazon and made our own needleminders. Hopefully the triangular cat from Russia isn’t radioactive.

I made the mistake of not reading the details 😂 It's Petite, which I wasn't expecting, but definitely well within my range of abilities. Comes with everything, packaged nice and neat. Came in an orderly fashion. Super cute as it's coming along. Maybe update the review with a picture when it's finished

Missing my summers and ocean beach. Lovely warm picture. This is the first design which introduced me to blending colors. Love it.

I love Dimensions cross stitch kits. This one is very small, 5 x 7 but requires a lot of attention to detail. The pattern is easy to follow, but it's 18 count which makes it a challenge. It's got beautiful colors and when completed will be as beautiful as the picture.

UPDATED: Just finished stitching this one and it is great! Can't wait to get it in a frame and hang it in the kitchen. There was plenty of floss for each color. It has a lot of color changes; be prepared for that. My only trouble, was that the black backstitching was shown as a thin black line on the chart and I had to go back several times, in different areas, because I overlooked some of the stitches. Would definitely recommend to someone that likes to do counted cross stitching.

I failed to read the "18 count aida cloth" part! I'm used to large complex 14 count projects so I thought this would be a breeze. It's not. Lol! But that doesn't mean I don't like it! It's been a fun challenge not only with dark cloth but with the teeny tiny stitches. It's really pushing my middle aged perfect eyesight a bit over the edge! I've always loved the gold collection patterns, they're of best quality and totally organized. This will keep me busy thru the California Covid quarantine quite nicely!

I haven't done needlework in over a decade and this this was a good starter because of the small size and comments that most were half stitches. Boy oh boy! The first few times I picked it up I had such a hard time locating my place on the chart where I left off. I started lightly coloring in pencil the boxes I had sewn. That's helped a lot but what really helps is the more often I pick it up, it gets easier next time. This will still take me a long time to finish but it's fun and will be pretty.

Dimensions craft kits are always high quality ... clear instructions & patterns, sufficient floss & materials.Product was delivered by seller quickly, and was well packaged.

Se ve impecable, no veo las horas de empezarlo a bordar. Llegó en tiempo y forma y se ve muy bonito.

I really liked everything about this set! The canvas is thick and durable, the pattern is colorful, and the threads are pre-organized for convenience. There's even a needle included in the kit. I highly recommend it! Additionally, the packaging is compact, making it easy to store. I hope the finished embroidery will turn out to be a lovely, small picture

Es una buena compra pero para personas con experiencia para bordar el lienzo viene en blanco y hay q tener cuidado para el bordado
