Product Reviews:See what folks are saying!

The size of the project is 3x3 inches. As stated within the pattern instructions, this "kit" includes instructions,14 ct perforated paper, wool felt backing, the metallic thread for the four stars and the bluebird button. It does NOT include thread or a needle. There is a thread list on the back of the pattern. However, this thread list is incomplete. It does not include DMC color 783, which is used for the nest under the bluebird. Fortunately the color is identified within the narrative instructions. Also one specialty color Weeks Dye 4139 is required. While the color looks great on the snowman's scarf, it is not availble to me locally, so I have changed the color scheme to reflect the thread colors that I have on hand. I won't be buying Val's Stuff in the future.

This is not just for this item, but for the merchandise overall. First, the merchandise is VERY fairly priced! When you spend much of your time crafting, it goes from "hobby" to OBSESSION! Which in turn starts getting more and more expensive. And then you start justifying why you're spending that much, and then your brain starts feeling fried, right? Well, that's what makes Everything Cross Stitch a great vendor. It truly is everything for those who love not just cross stitch, but everything needlepoint related. And the thing we stitchers use more than anything is thread, and this great company offers it so reasonably priced, that you gladly pay the $8 shipping fee, because the thread is great. And they have all kinds of thread! Cotton - of course, satin variegated, metallic, perle, DMC AND Anchor! How great is that!? And talking about shipping, it arrives on a very timely basis. I purchase different crafting materials from one of several online stores. I live in the Midwest, the company is based in the Appalachias, and it takes 3 weeks to arrive. Everything Cross Stitch delivers usually within 2-3 days of my order. I love that. I HIGHLY recommend you suggest this vendor to your crafty/stitchy friends. They will thank you! Mine did!

I specialize in Cafe scenes...I call them tapestries they are so big) and have found 4 marvelous ones on Everything Cross Stitch. Each takes a year and a half to do. 4-5 hours a day while watching TV...I cannot watch TV anymore without cross stitching. My mentor wife has created a monster!

I loved stitching every character from The Wizard of Oz. It was a great pattern to easily stop and start again. I used 16-ct Aida in "Sea Spray" color. While I'm pleased with the results, I think a darker blue would look better to help contrast with the white stitches in Glinda's wand and stars nearby. Hoping to find an arched frame to display it next to my souvenir apple from The Wizard of Oz at The Sphere in Las Vegas. There's No Place Like Home!

It is very easy to do. I just wish it had the Kitsap Peninsula and some of the bigger islands. I live on the Peninsula. I wanted to make it for my grandchildren, that live in Kansas, to show them where grandma and grandpa live.

This was my first time working with wool blend yarn and once I got used to it I found it was not difficult to work with at all. The finished picture is beautiful. The wool colors have a depth and richness that cotton floss doesn’t have. I’m very pleased with the results.

I did have to take the pattern to UPS and have them enlarged it which made it alot easier to see. And that is with my up close glasses. Other than that I am enjoying the project.

Like all Teresa Wentzler patterns, Rose Tree in Bloom is intricate, complicated, detailed--definitely not a "weekend" project. They always require dedication, concentration, and patience. BUT, when you have taken the last stitch and have taken the fabric off the frame, you have a masterpiece of which you can be justifiably very proud. Whether you give this as a gift or keep it for yourself, you have created something that is a thing of beauty and a joy forever.

I feel in love with this pattern and couldn't wait to get started. It took me 7 months. The hardest part of this patterns was the colors, I got really tired of blacks and blues. But the finished picture meet and exceeded my expectations.

I like this design very much. All of Theresa Wenzler's designs are beautiful, especially the Victorian ones. This will be delightful to stitch.

This project was quite the challenge but it has such beautiful colors and was actually fun to do. Took me almost 10 months to complete (working about 2-3 hours/day) but is so worth it! A real prize winner.

I just finished this piece and loved how it came out. First time I used beads in a cross stitch piece. Lots of blending of floss colors and stitched over 2 threads. The even weave made it difficult to keep stitch counts with the inconsistency of thread width. Now to frame it!

The only hard part is that the chart is in multiple pages

I made this for my nephew and his new bride. Directions were clear and it was easier than I thought it would be. They loved it

I love the details in Teresa Wentzler designs. This isn't my first Wentzler and I hope it won't be my last.

Everything is excellent ??

I thought this would be easy, however, the symbols for the various colors are very similar making it difficult to follow. There are only five colors, so why not five totally different symbols? Some of the color symbols are just turned a different direction! It can be very confusing.

finished size is 14 & 1/8 inches...top stitch to bottom stitch (not much leftover fabric). Making it much more difficult to frame will probably have to custom frame OR do another stitching Have never had this happen with any other pattern! Disappointing

I love being able to change the colors for the person I give them to,

Easy to do, with bright colors. I did mine on white aida.
