Dimensions Gold Collection A Treasured Time 8569, Counted Cross Stitch Kit, 16 Count Grey Aida

A Treasured Time is a large counted cross stitch kit from the Dimensions Gold Collection — a detailed Victorian winter village scene designed by Dennis P. Lewan. The finished piece is 16 x 12 inches, large enough to frame as seasonal wall art. Half cross stitch throughout creates painterly depth in the snow, sky, and figures that makes the completed piece look like a holiday painting rather than a craft project.

🎨 About This Collection

The Dimensions Gold Collection is Dimensions' most technically advanced line — kits include a broader thread palette, more blending, and more backstitching than standard Dimensions kits. This is a long-term project best suited for experienced stitchers who enjoy complex, large-scale work.

📦 Good to Know

• Brand new, factory-sealed. Frame and hoop not included.
• This is a counted cross stitch kit — the Aida fabric is blank, you stitch from the included chart. Not suitable for beginners.
• A popular gift choice for embroidery lovers and needlework enthusiasts. Makes a meaningful gift for anyone who loves Christmas scenes, Victorian holiday art, and large-scale cross stitch projects that become seasonal wall art pieces.

❓ FAQ

Is the pattern printed on the fabric? No. The Aida fabric is blank — you stitch from the included colour accented symbol chart.

What is the difference between counted and stamped cross stitch? In counted cross stitch the fabric is plain and you follow a chart to place each stitch. Stamped cross stitch has the pattern printed directly on the fabric. This kit is counted.
