I want to improve my embroidery skills, and what better way to do that than to practice? I've never used crewel wool before, but we'll see how it goes.
Unfortunately the kits for this design have been completely sold out, but if you want to buy the sampler pattern, you can get it here.  I obviously am not sure yet if the directions are easy to follow since I haven't started yet, but I'm impressed with the quality of the kit and can only hope that the instructions are just as good (she did have her husband test them, after all!).
Something tells me I'll be spending some quality stitching time with this kit in the near future, especially considering the fact that our TV seems to be broken.  I'm pretty sure our house got struck by lightning on Tuesday night!

OoOoOoO unfortunately I missed out on the kits, but I did get the pdf pattern. I've never done embroidery like this before so I'm a little nervous, but excited. Good luck!
