Customer Review: I bought this for my 7 yr old niece who is starting to enjoy the basics of sewing. Her mom helped her with it and said they both really enjoyed it. Alex is a great brand that I always trust. My daughter saw this and wanted one too, she is only 4. I got one for her and I'm sure she'll be able to do... more info

The purse is clever. We are currently... more info
Customer Review: I got two of these cross stitch kits for my 9 year-old daughter, and she really loved them. The instructions were easy to follow, and there was plenty of thread for the project. She finished both in a couple of days with no frustration at all.
