"I've gotten 3 kits. This kit with the cat and leaves IS actually a good beginner kit. Instructions are a bit vague, but can be supplemented with youtube videos. KEY ISSUE: the thread colours are numbered to help you follow the example/picture BUT that is not the order you are meant to complete the kit. I wish they would give an idea of what order to do the colours or parts of the diagram in, and labelled colours by letters instead. For the design I had (grey cat lying on back on top of leaves, this was mostly an issue with the black lines on the cat, which I had to do a second time over the top of the grey. This was a minor issue, it still turned out great, and there was PLENTY of spare thread. ALSO the embroidery hoop was plastic. Some of the items have wood, so if that matters, maybe check the description"
