Jim Shore Snowy Owl Snowman Counted Cross Stitch Kit-5x5 18 Count

I would give this five stars but for the embellishment beads. It took me only a few hours to cross stich this wonderful pattern and DAYS to do the beading. Threading the needle for the beads was the absolute worst. That said the colors are rich, the pattern super easy to follow, and will easily become a keep sake.

Absolutely beautiful! Instead of using 3 strands I used 4. This way I was able to thread the bead with two strands and then double the cross stitch for a total of four strands.
