Turtle shell
Love this design. Easy to stitch and always looks great. Thought it came with a backing. These BeBe Bold samplers should. I agree that everything should be pre printed. Makes life easier

Very Beginner Friendly
This BeBe Bolds sampler is very beginner friendly since the stitches are large, the instructions are written in detailed English instructions with pictures, & the single layer of fabric is easy to stitch through. The red fabric is a pretty burgundy, which would work great for Christmas and feels heavier than some other samplers. I took 1 star off, because I think it should have backing fabric & the fabric should be preprinted in washable ink with the circles it has you draw in. Overall, it is a fun quick sampler & I may get another color to frame as a gift.
