Joy Sunday Cross Stitch Kits 14CT Counted White Horse 14.2"x16.5" Or 36cmx42cm Easy Patterns Embroidery for Girls Crafts DMC Cross-Stitch Supplies Needlework

This is cute and easy once I got that hang of it. 2 things: 1 split the floss. That gets lost in translation and you will run out if you don't. I did not at first and it was much more difficult to stitch and I had to use a different color to finish that section. I would use 2 strands with the needle in the middle which make it 4 strands thick.2 Dont worry if you can see the pattern underneath. You're supposed to wash it when complete. The direction will tell you how.Once you get your rhythm down it's quite fun and goes quickly.

I bought this for myself during this COVID social isolation times - first cross stitch since I was a teen (let's say it's been well over 30 yrs since I've done this so I consider myself a beginner) - very relaxing and beautiful result. The photo is here right after I hand washed it in warm water to get rid of the background grid and printed on colors after I completed it. I used a double strand of the embroidery floss for this project (each supplied string is 6 strands of floss, I pulled out two at a time; and I still had a lot of extra left over). Also, I didn't use the white floss for the line in the legs, I used the same color as the yellow in the fox's chest, which was more subtle; I did the project following the strings starting at #1 and onwards; which makes it hard for finding the print guiding the legs line at the end, so I followed the design visually and was able to do a backstitch over the body's cross stitched section). The fabric is very stiff at first and did cramp up my hand from handling, but do not wash it to try and soften it as the background print will wash out; the fabric did soften after handling over time). I ended up using thimbles eventually too, to protect my fingers as needed.

Received my kit in the time specified. Was floored when I opened it to check it out! I didn't notice the size of the project. This is most definitely NOT a bad thing. There seems to be ample floss, and the 2-pack of needles is most welcome. I hope to remember to add pictures later, after I embark on this glorious project. 10/10 would highly recommend!!

Purchased for my 9-year-old step daughter who has taken an interest in learning counter cross-stitch. The pre-printed pattern has helped her and makes the experience more enjoyable for a young person. Very cute.

This was a great cross stitch project. Perfect for newbies learning for the first time. The stamped picture makes it simple. It’s heavy duty and the embroidery floss is good quality.

This isn’t really for beginners-more like advanced beginners. The needle is super tiny and had to buy a needle threader. They do not explain that you have to pull the floss apart to 3 strands-which is a pain-making it even harder to thread the needle. I ended up using the whole six strand floss and then bought additional floss. The design is cute and not very complex as far as color shifts. It’s best to watch some YouTube videos first.

Lovely patterns. Came with 45 different colored floss, precut fabric, 2 needles, pattern and instructions in a nice plastic sleeve that has a snap on it. A kit and project good for someone that doesn't enjoy back stitching as there is none in the design. Only complaint is the design is on a high gloss paper so making marking off completed sections taxing as marking ink doesnt dry quickly on high gloss.

I think how much better Joy Sunday would be if their factory included enough thread for each color. I have at least three colors that lack enough embroidery floss. In fact I am working on this project at this moment. I have had to spend much time ordering additional floss from various companies. This process interrupts my pleasure in working on this project. I have ordered some additional Joy Sunday pre stamped cross stitch kits because I like the layout ofthe pictures, the dmc colors used ,and the quality of the Aida cloth on which the figure is printed. Instructions are easy. Joy Sunday--Please give more floss and you will have a perfect product without the customer worrying about enough floss, time used to order floss, waiting for it to be sent. You have a fine product, but that is the only shortcoming I found. Keep your customers by addressing this one issue and you'll have a 5 star rating.

Super easy and fun. I have never cross stitched before and I figured it out without having to think too much. The other reviews are right about not enough threat however the color matching is easy, the DMC number on the print is the corresponding color if you run out. I ran out and found the matching color on Amazon for like seven bucks so don’t worry about that.

I found this in a toy collection, so thought it would be suitable for a 12 year old, similar to something I had as a child, where the pattern was stamped in colour onto the canvas and the material was yarn. This item is a complex article much more suitable for an experienced cross stitch embroiderer.

Great print. As a first timer it didn’t instruct how to start/finish a row. The instructions say to use 3 strands from a string. As per another review, I only used 2 and still didn’t have enough thread and have had to buy additional 6 of 12 colours and even then the colours don’t match 100%
