DimensionsGold Collection Counted Cross Stitch Kit, Dreaming of Tuscany, 18 Count Ivory Aida, 5'' x 7''

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

Not easy but really enjoyed it

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 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!

This is the first time I have completed a Gold Collection Petites. Was an easy pattern as it had so many half stitches. As always with Dimensions packs, I had more than enough thread. The end result is amazing. It only took me 10 days and helped pass the time in quarantine.

Got this as a gift to my mum. Initially struggled with the number of colours used, however, the small size worked out well as she was able to finish it and get started on a larger piece now that she had the trial run with this one.Great that it came with all the kit needed. i.e threads (floss), needles, aida fabric and the guide. Awesome product

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.

This cross stitch was a lot of fun. I love Dimensions kits - always ample thread and they come out great.

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

This lovely scene reminds me so much of Italian holidays.Very difficult to stitch. The chart isn't always clear, could do with using more colours to differentiate between stitches.The finished article looks very nice though.

It’s a lovely little piece, calming and serene. I thoroughly enjoyed stitching it. Wasn't sure about the frame I chose at first, but it has definitely added to the beauty of the work.

Managed to get this at a great price, quality like all other Dimensions kits and very happy.

I was so happy in how quick this product came in that I thought I accidentally changed my account to prime ! Lol. The print is not printed on but it does have a very detailed diagram chart but it definitely looks more tricky than what I’m use to. I recommend maybe not for a beginner like myself but the thread organizer is nice and this would be a perfect project for someone who knows what they are doing more lol
