Dimensions 'Glory of Autumn' Seasonal Counted Cross Stitch Kit, Ivory Aida, 14" x 11", 14 Count

This was my latest 2020 survival project! It turned out absolutely beautiful. The colors are very vibrant. You will not be disappointed! Tips: While I would not consider this a beginner project, the larger stitch size and kit organization make it pretty easy to do. Just be prepared to spend some time because it is a larger project. The thread comes presorted on cards as shown. I taped the card to the top of a sturdy folder with pockets. The pockets hold the long threads when not in use (a slip knot will prevent tangling) and the charts as well. Also, the taped gap btwn the folder and card make a perfect place to place a threaded needle right next to the matching threads. Use several needles (I preferred sz. 26 for this, except for the parts using 5 or 6 threads), so that you don’t have to rethread every time you change colors. Just poke the threaded needle into the tape at the top until you need it next:-) I chose to frame this without glass to let the textures shine through. Without matting, it will fit a 11 x 14 in. frame.

Pretty seasonal picture. Everything included

Dimensions cross stitch kits are the best! I have completed a few of them and it is the only brand I buy. They come with everything you need (besides the embroidery hoop) and I like how they add special stitches to give the finished product pretty details.

Such vivid colors. Love that this is based on a real location.

Love working on this project, but for future buyers, strongly suggest matching supplied floss to DMC or other brand and buying extra. Found I ran out of the floss that came in the kit fairly early - maybe I spread things out too much, but I would think you should be able to get through most of the project before needing additional supplies. Tried to contact the company to find out how to order more, but was not successful - website not very user friendly for that purpose. A shame, because their designs are beautiful

This is the first kit I have done, and the first time I've cross-stitched, for that matter. It was relatively easy to just follow the instructions and the result was beautiful! This design only requires cross-stitches, half stitches, back stitches, and two French knots (which took me an hour to figure out), and I was surprised that I didn't run out of any of the threads, even after making numerous minor mistakes. I did end up replacing the needle because it started to corrode about 2/3 of the way through. I highly recommend this kit, even for beginners like me!

This was a long project for me. Finally finished and love it... now to get it framed. Note: can be a bit bulky when stitching half stitches with 3 to 6 threads.

Loved that the materials were all included and so easy to find each color with them in the color card already sorted. I started working on it and can’t put it down. Great quality and easy directions! Would highly recommend!!

Un cuadro de punto de cruz muy hermoso, muy sencillo de seguir las instrucciones y el resultado es maravilloso

WAS VERY EXCITED TO START BUT GOT SOOO UPSET AS THE NEEDLES WERE NOT IN THE PACKAGE!

I loved this counted cross stitch! It took me 9 months to finish lol, but it's beautiful! I'll be framing it and hanging it up on my way soon :) def recommend!

Bought this for my grandmother - it looks typical to what she has always bought before. The yarns are all organised and the chart comes with instructions for which colour goes where. Probably more complicated than what a beginner would want, but my grandmother is happy with it!

I can't really attest to the product because it is my wife that does needlepoint but she said that it's really good quality
