Dimensions 73472 D73472 Counted Cross Stitch Craft Kit Zoo Alphabet Baby Birth Record Personalized B/REC, White,30 x 23 cm

Easy to follow pattern

I made this for my niece's baby, I had underestimated how much work there was and how long it would take, but am very pleased with the end result! Pattern was easy to follow and I had plenty of thread. It was for a little girl, so I bought some deep pink thread and substituted the pink for for the lettering and the blue inner and outer border

I bought this cross stitch kit a few weeks ago, as my nephew's wife is having their first baby.We have found out that it's a boy and due date is early September, so I have loads of time to finish it.It's lovely quality Aida, the design is so cute and suitable for boys or girls.I've only just started it but realise it will take me a long time as there are thousands of stitches, but it looks really good so far.Great price too.My local town shops sell kits like this for £25This was £16.

I have completed numerous cross stitch patterns over a number of years. I like Dimensions kits, which are well put together and could be completed by a novice who has the patience to read the instructions and not race ahead to complete the pattern in the shortest time possible.I haven't completed the pattern yet, so I am unable to comment on the quantity of thread supplied. However on previous kits, I have found that there is plenty, provided that you use it sensibly.I have had no problems with thread unravelling, or tangling as stated in other reviews. I suspect that they are trying to use too long a length of thread. I use a single strand doubled.This is a lovely pattern, which will be perfect for my newest grandchild.

Beautiful pattern, nice fabric and threads. Very easy to follow.

I ordered this for my soon to be niece or nephew. I'm part way through and so far it has been a good pattern to follow and is looking beautiful.It's a lot of work but I would say it is done in such a way that a novice would be able to complete it relatively easily.I read a comment before purchasing about thread quality, some of the colours are more prone to fraying but for the price that this complete set costs I think it's a tad unreasonable to complain. If you buy a similar size set from a craft shop you can be looking at nearer £30-£40. At that price I'd have an issue with lower quality thread!

It’s been years since I’ve done any cross stitch and this piece was perfect to get back into it. It was easy to stitch with only cross stitches and back stitching and there is plenty of thread available. The end result is lovely and perfect for my son’s nursery.

It is as lovely as it looks, colours are gorgeous and I'm sewing it quickly as instructions and sewing chart clear and easy to understand. My only moan is that the white thread shreds as you sew, so I've used a different brand for the White. But loving every stitch
