The design is already painted on the canvas, so you stitch by following the printed colours with no counting, and the large holes keep the work moving quickly even if you are new to cross stitch or simply want a relaxing project. The thick acrylic yarn gives good coverage, so the surface stays dense and the cushion stands up to everyday use.
The kit makes the front panel of the cover only: to finish it you will also need backing fabric, a zip or buttons and a cushion pad, all bought separately. The stitched panel can equally be framed or used as the centre of a tote bag.
