I usually don’t buy needlepoint kits because my experience has been that the printed canvas and instructions aren’t very good and there’s not enough wool to complete the project- even if you are frugal. Imagine my delight then on receiving the Macaw kit- a beautiful canvas, gorgeous wool (seems to be plenty of it though I am only part way through). I really appreciate the color identification chart for making sure I select the right colors. A super bonus is the printed grid chart so I can confirm placement when the colors on the canvas are close. The general stitching instructions were good too.
I was also really impressed with the customer service provided!
The only (small?) recommendation I would make is for tips about using different stitches. The kit is designed for Victorian cross stitch but I wondered if it would also work out with regular needlepoint stitching- or whether the wool is a bit thin for complete coverage of the canvas.
I really enjoy my afternoon stitching sessions so a big thanks for the pleasure you’ve given me!

Beautifully presented kit. A nice surprise that wool already cut to length. Excellent quality printing. I really like the big chart and canvas, easy on your eyes. I am sure I will buy another from the series. It arrived quickly too.

Everything about this purchase was first class. Very impressed with the kit, excellent quality, and presentation. Certainly will be purchasing more kits in the future.

Although I have not yet started this project, the canvas looks very nice, and the packaging, communication, and fulfilment for this purchase were all very professional. Thank you.

Beautiful kit! Colours are really pretty! Always outstanding!
