Tag: assorted cross stitch kit from tkmaxx review
Recently, I shared my previous cross stitch project, featuring colourful feathers. I liked the pattern so much that I ended up saving that set for a very long time.

Luckily, I have now picked up a different cross stitch set, which doesn’t involve horses… but that’s for another day.
