Just a quicky kit from the January 2015 Cross Stitcher magazine. Pretty straight forward, you stitch your little letter then stick it in the plastic frame that came with the kit.
It came with more than enough floss and the letter choice were fairly nice. I decided to put my design on a little bit of offcut from the foam board I used when framing my Hummingbird & Morning Glories design to raise the design up. Otherwise it would have sat quite deep in the frame. I like how that turned out.
BUT I was lazy with the glue. I couldn't be bothered finding my craft glue so just used some random super-glue that was in the kitchen...yeah not really the best idea I've had. Smelt bad, ended up going everywhere and dried too fast so I couldn't adjust the angle of the design. I would have been much better off finding the right glue or even not using any glue at all. The board on the back would have held it into the frame fairly securely. Sigh. My own fault.
