“Bears little resemblance to the original painting by...”

★☆☆☆☆

I purchased Renoir's "Two Sisters" a few months ago. The quality of the aida fabric is very poor also having persevered with the stitching for several weeks I realised that the picture was fuzzy and the colours were "wrong".I decided to look at a print of the original painting and your kit bears little or no resemblance both in colours and content. the faces of the sisters in your kit are both ugly and not pretty and smiling as they should be. There is a large orange blob of stitches on the hat of the smaller figure which looks terrible. Having studied the print of the original I realise that the orange blob was actually meant to be the back of a chair. What a surprise!! I have decided not to continue with this kit and will bin it, I have been cross-stitching since 1991 and this is the worst kit I've ever purchased!!! I look forward to your comments AND hopefully a refund.

From the owner. - respectfully I don't believe you. You have not purchased from us. I've just spent this morning calling every person that has bought this from us in the past year and every single one has expressed their satisfaction with the product. The points you raise can be seen by the simulation we provide of the stitch. This is obviously from a competitor.
