"Meerkat Standing"



http://www.yiotas-xstitch.com/ "cross stitch kits"


This is the beginning of my stitching "Meerkat Standing". It is a joy to stitch because Yiotas provided threads already wrapped in bobbins so there is no sorting to do before starting the stitch. This prevents the guessing of which color represents which symbols. I really appreciate that since my eyes are not as great as they used to be. The chart is in large print and very easy on my eyes too. There are no fractional stitches nor backstitching to stitch when done. She also provided DMC threads conversion for the threads that came with the kit. I am really looking forward to watching this meerkat develop as my needles continue to stitch.

  1. That sounds wonderful! It always takes such a long time to separate the threads in a kit and hope that you get all the colors to match the symbols correctly. I will also stitch a kit from Yiota's very soon.
