review is for W097 'tree of life'this kit has such a beautiful array of colors so it's worth it if you want a lot of pinks and blues and purples for cheap even if you're not interested in the pattern. DMC # included: 155 158 159 160 210 225 316 318 517 518 791 792 793 796 820 823 917 939 950 996 3041 3042 3325 3727 3746 3766 3835 3842all the colors have at minimum 8 feet of string and maximum 60 feet of blue 820!the pattern is pretty too, i'm about 25% done I think, but I'll need to improv some backstitching to really make it pop. It seems like a picture was just thrown through a "make cross stitch pattern wizard" and it's not designed specifically for embroidery. I also saw the same picture being sold as a diamond dots kit so maybe it was converted from that. to polish it off maybe some glittery seed beans sewn on?I do have a criticism that the edges aren't sewn so they start fraying, which isn't in itself a big deal because you can tape it off, but the pattern key is right on the edge so I can't use duct tape like I normally do for that side without covering the key. Minor annoyance but other kits either do nice stitching on the edges or they don't put the key RIGHT on the edge.

Nice size on stamped print as well as different codes on paper! Easy to follow!

its not as vibrant as the picture shown BUT its still beautiful! and i love it. half way through doing this, 3 of the colors were short thread, so i contacted the seller and they immediately sent a brand new kit. i am thankful to them. so i ordered extra string so i can fully complete both.

This is not easy! It is a lot of work, took me about a month doing it for about two to three hours a night. My biggest problem is that some of the thread was the same color as the as the colored block so I couldn’t tell if I had already stitched it. Also, the green dots looked blue and vise versa. I can’t tell you how many times I stared at the dots next to each other and they looked the same but not the same. It was frustrating. However, when all is said and done it came out beautiful! Do not get it even a tiny bit wet or the colors will bleed and your screwed if you don’t have the teeny tiny cheat sheet.

Doing it as a pillow

I find pictures of these finished very helpful so here is mine.

So if your looking for white to hang in a area this is not it

This is an intense undertaking, but I love the scene and the colors that here sent with the kit- loving them!!! So I’m going to have fun doing this even though it will take quite a while!
