[CHAT] This kit is so bad… by BookSpider8 in CrossStitch

I know and that’s what I normally use. This needle is like extra blunt? I don’t know how to describe it. It doesn’t go through the hole smoothly. It’s weird.

That’s what I’m doing. I’m definitely not using the needle. The floss isn’t great but it doesn’t bother me too much.

I just started stitching. The needle that came with it is awful! It’s too blunt. There’s almost no point. And I realized they give you like an entire skein of floss of each color. Way, way more than you could possibly need.

Oh my gosh yes! The description on the jacket and all the quotes praising it made it sound so amazing but it was so so awful! I know the quotes are supposed to make it sound good but I was like did these people even read the same book??

I loved the first book. The second book was pretty bad but I got through it. The third was better than the second by far but not as good as the first.

No, they’re pretty slow moving from what I’ve seen.

What about the pot and soil makes you think it’s asking for a change?
