Noela Cross Stitch Kit by Janlynn

Not a novice, been doing different kinds of needlework for over 55 years but this one almost defeated me. Never did one this small (12x7) that had so many floss colors (44 colors, some so close in shading when together you really couldn't see any difference). That made it difficult when trying to count where the next color went in the wreath when the ones already down were so close in shade you couldn't tell what color they were. I almost quit several times. And although when finished and taken to be framed I could see how beautiful it turned out, I wouldn't want to repeat it again. Hopefully it was just me and others will have a more enjoyable creating experience.

Have not started this yet but I am looking forward to it. Kit is very nicely put together.

This is a beautiful project and such fun to stitch.
