Mill HillSun and Moon Beaded Counted Cross Stitch Kit 2018 Laurel Burch Celestial Collection LB141813

Bought this to make for a friend. Love the theme and colors.

I just finished this recently. As other reviewers have mentioned, it's a little tricky to figure out which thread color is which, but with good lighting, young eyes, and just counting out the strings, I didn't have too much trouble sorting that out.The beads aren't hard to tell apart, but I was only able to fit one strand through the smaller needle for beading. To make sure I was stitching with two strands, I just pulled the one strand through, lined it up with the other end of the string, and tied it. It's pretty easy once you figure that out.Also, I decided to use a different cloth rather than the perforated paper that came with the design just so I wouldn't have to worry as much about centering and personal preference.Overall, this design was one of my favorites that I have ever stitched, and would recommend it to anyone who loves cross-stitch and celestial aethetics!

This was the second one I made and it was very good. Plenty of materials, good directions. Definitely thread the bead needle with single ply and then double It to attach the beads.
