I don't usually buy complete kits.  I like to choose my own thread and create my own stitches.  However the price is right.  I needed a hummingbird design for a friend.  For a beginning stitcher this would be good.  I plan to use some of the threads in the kit and create my own stitches.  I plan to add some metallic thread on the bird.  I have a large stash of threads.  Cute design, easy stitching and quick delivery.  I think it is worthwhile for a quick project.
