Perfect for art lovers, this thoughtful gift is an incredible way to personalise your love and creativity for friends and family. It's a wonderful handmade surprise for parents, grandparents, neighbours, and friends.
Each personalised cross stitch kit comes packed with all the essentials: a printed canvas featuring your chosen image, a range of quality cotton/silk threads, easy-to-understand instructions, a stitch counting pattern, and a needle. And if you opt for it, we'll also add an elegant wooden frame to your kit.
Even if you're new to the world of cross-stitching, our kit has got you covered! It's tailored to suit all skill levels and includes everything necessary to complete your personalised cross stitch project.
We can't wait to see your stitching masterpieces!
To ensure the best outcome for your personalised cross stitch, we recommend adhering to these simple photo selection guidelines:
A headshot or upper body photo with a minimalist background tends to deliver the most detail. Good colour contrast between the subject and the background is also beneficial. Close-up selfies or flash photography are not recommended as they may result in washed-out colour tones.
FOLLOW THESE 5 SIMPLE STEPS TO CREATE YOUR PERSONALISED CROSS STITCH MASTERPIECE:
Step 1. Click "Choose Image" to start picking your preferred photo. While we can work with any image quality, vibrant, non-pixelated photos yield the best results.
Step 2. Choose the size of your canvas. Larger canvases (at least 40cm across) preserve more detail, which is why we highly recommend them. We'll adjust the orientation (landscape or portrait) based on your image, unless otherwise specified.
Step 3. Select the number of threads you prefer. More threads mean more detail in your final piece. If your image has lots of shades and details, a higher thread count is the best choice! Then, pick your preferred thread type.
Step 4. Make sure your image upload was successful by checking if a file is attached to your order. If everything looks good, hit "Add To Cart", or checkout instantly with your favourite provider.
Step 5. Continue to checkout as you usually would. To double-check everything is in order, click or tap the image link attached to your order. This allows you to download and confirm the image we have for your personalised cross stitch.
Now, all you have to do is eagerly anticipate the arrival of your personalised cross stitch kit at your doorstep!

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my photo actually work?
Most do. The best results come from a clear head-and-shoulders shot with good light and some contrast between your pet and the background. Very dark, blurry or heavily flash-lit photos lose detail once they're charted.
If you're unsure, send it to us before you order and we'll tell you honestly whether it will stitch well — and suggest a size that suits it.
I've never cross stitched before. Is this too hard?
No. Your pattern comes pre-printed onto the Aida fabric and your threads arrive pre-sorted and labelled, so there's no counting from a blank grid and no guessing which colour goes where.
Cross stitch is a single repeated stitch — if you can thread a needle, you can do this. Choose 11 count for the largest, easiest squares to start with.
What's included in my cross stitch kit?
Each custom cross stitch kit includes: high-quality Aida fabric, pre-sorted DMC threads, a detailed pattern chart, a needle, and clear instructions. Everything you need to start stitching immediately!
How long does it take to stitch?
It depends on size and fabric count. As a rough guide, a 20x30cm (8"x12") pet portrait takes most people around 20–30 hours; a 40x50cm (16"x20") is more like 60–80 hours.
It isn't a weekend project — that's rather the point. Most people stitch a little each evening and finish over a few weeks.
How long does shipping take?
Orders are typically dispatched within 3-5 business days as each kit is custom-made. Delivery times vary by location - UK orders usually arrive within 5-7 days, international orders may take 10-14 days.
What fabric count should I choose?
For beginners, we recommend 11 count Aida - the larger squares make it easier to see where to stitch. More experienced stitchers often prefer 14 or 16 count for finer detail in their finished piece.
Can I change the size after ordering?
Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to modify your order. We can often accommodate changes before production begins, but once your pattern has been created and threads sorted, modifications may not be possible.
