DimensionsFrederick the Literate' Snoozing Cat Counted Cross Stitch Kit, 14 Count Black Aida, 12" x 11"

Took me ~ 6 months to complete for my mother-in-law. I eventually got used to the black background, but it was a little challenging the first few square inches. A few of the colors were a little different than what the package showed, but I think it was a beautiful piece. Definitely the largest and most complex piece I've ever done. I don't recommend this for beginners because there's lots of threads to keep track of and is very large.

This is pretty cute and is very entertaining. But the fabric is black so it's hard on the eye. If you are a newbie, I suggest a simpler design on a light background. The quality of the treads is ok. The needles are not great. I recommend buying your own needles. But the design is very beautiful.This is a big project btw.. so plan to spend months on it.

I made this for my sister who loves cats and books. She loved it! It took me 5 months to complete. The black Aida was a little difficult to work with at first but if you work with a bright light you won't have any problems. The chart is easy to follow and the metallic threads really set it off. Well worth the time it took to work it! The only negative is the size. It made it necessary to purchase a custom made frame.

Love these kits. Always enough thread to finish the project.

Beautiful picture. Great instructions. It's going to take me a long time to do but will be a challenge. Once completed it is to be framed and is a gift for my sister. Thank you. (Just wish the picture was printed on the canvas to speed completion)

Great quality threads and aida, though its very difficult to work on black aida. I haven't finished yet, and I have decided to put the titles of my favourite books to replace those that marked in the chart on the book shelves. Should be fun.

I love the design and concept of this project. The black background can be challenging to work with but that was one of the reasons I chose this particular design. I am about half way through the project and very happy with the results so far. I chose to replace the provided threads with DCM equivalents because I seem to always run out of the kit threads anyway. The colors combinations are nice and really provide a lot of depth to the picture.

I'm a beginner, having done only about 5 smaller, easier patterns. I wanted a bigger, more immersive one, and I got it. I wouldn't recommend it as a first project, but I'm comfortable with how it is progressing with the small amount of experience I have.

aber so toll habe ich es noch nie gesehen (Bücher haben Titel!). Mal sehen ob das Sticken auch so ein Ergebnis bringt wie auf dem Bild. Ich kenne das Motiv mindestens 20 Jahre oder länger - auf Gobelin - als Kissen, Windschutzrolle oder Bild. Bin gespannt wie sich der schwarze Stoff auf die Augen auswirkt. Ich habe bisher immer auf beige/weiss gestickt.Die Stick-Schrift (Zeichnung) ist in s/w gedruckt. Die einzelnen Stilstiche sind in blau/rot mit gedruckt auf einem Bogen. Das wird schön knifflig - und man muss genau hinsehen.Nachtrag v. 20.5.2020: Wie konnte ich nur??? Das Bild ist sehr anstrengend zu sticken. Der schwarze Stoff nervt. Nie wieder - zukünftig immer beige! Ich bin im oberen Bereich bis zum gelben Buch gekommen. Trotz Stickens im hellen Tageslicht - ob ich vielleicht das Bild von der Verpackung in einen Rahmen gebe? Merkt man das?!
