Pattern is Colorful Deer on Amazon. Overall a decent pattern (and the kit came with everything!) but I felt like a lot of the detail was lost so I ended up adding some backstitching and French knots myself. It’s my first time cross stitching since I was a kid and I fell back in love with it!
Hello, this is my first time posting. I just found this sub and I'm obsessed! This is my first project that is full coverage and large. I had done a little growing up but recently picked it back up. My last 2 projects were very small and simple. I wanted to commit to something big and more complicated.
Please any tips or suggestions are SO welcome! I clearly don't have much rhyme to my sewing, just kinda go where my mood takes me.
This pattern is from amazon, colorful deer: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CGHYF2I/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_aL6LzbGMSHGR4
This is the kit I did not pay attention to the size of before I bought - part of my proven crafting track record of "ah, it'll be fine! I'll pick it up as I go!" - and then had a period of oh no when I realised that the paper chart was a full nine pages of A4 in size and the centre point start is riiiight in the middle of all that colour changing nonsense just below the eye.
​
...oh no, in the process of searching for this kit I've ended up on the brands amazon page and now I'm eyeing up the owl that's in the same series, and I already have an overly complicated owl kit in my stash because - see above - the only way to try blackwork is clearly to buy a rainbow-gradient-on-black-aida.
I got the pattern from Amazon:

This will be the first time I'll be framing a finished piece for myself. Just need to wash and iron first!

After 6 months I've finally finished this. It's 150x200 stitches and measures 10"x14".
I got the kit from Amazon and was very pleased with it. There was plenty of thread, so I have a fair amount left over for future projects!
Thoroughly enjoyed my first full coverage project, the perfect mindfulness practice I've needed.
