Kit includes Beads, treasures, 14 count perforated paper/pvc, magnet, floss, needles, chart and instructions. Finished size: 2.5" x 2.75".
While we still have kits in stock with Perforated Paper, newer Mill Hill kits are now being made with Perforated PVC. We were skeptical at first, but here's what our testing has revealed so far:
1. Perforated PVC looks and feels nearly identical to perforated paper, and nothing like plastic canvas. It's sturdy and easy to hold, and is slightly harder to bend.
2. Our needle and thread glide just as smoothly through the new PVC as they do through paper, and finished stitches on both materials look nearly identical.
3. The new PVC is some sturdy stuff. It's much harder to tear than the paper, so you can pull your threads as tight as you want without having to worry about deforming holes or ripping. We also expect the PVC to be more resistant to decay and yellowing.
All in all, while (like many in the community) we were originally hesitant about this change, our first impressions have been very positive.

from United States on 08/31/2023 - Mill Hill Polar Bear xstitch kit Finish project is adorable.
from United States on 07/09/2022 Fast to stitch and looks great!
from United States on 12/17/2018 - Beads too small I had a very difficult time with the tiny beads on this ornament. They were so small that a very tiny needle was needed provided in the kit. The eye of the needle was so small that I could not thread the indicated 2 strands of embroidery floss through it. I had to use just one strand and sew each bead twice. This was very frustrating and time consuming.
from United States on 03/27/2018 The kit came without thread. Have to purchase at Michael's even though the Product Details states floss is included.
from United States on 12/10/2017 - Missing Thread Nice kit bit was missing one of the thread colours. Fortunately I had that colour in my collection so no harm done.
from United States on 01/30/2017 - Quick Project Don't let all the white and beads fool you - this works up quickly. Mill Hill always comes up with great ornaments and this is no exception. Plenty of beads and floss leftover.
