Beginner friendlyCustom Kit vs DIY from scratch
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
