I love the colors and would never have been able to pick them all out myself. Love it!
I'm usually not tempted by kits (knitting or quilting) but every now and then, there is a project that I know I could never improve upon myself. |

Any one have an opinion?

Want some extra!!! I hate when, for whatever reason, I run out of thread (needlework kits), or fabric. Maybe I cut it wrong, a small mistake can quickly turn into a big one if there is not a bit of extra included.
