And it was not the best experience. I really like the result though, very cute, my partner likes it a lot. But I will probably stick to non-counted stitching methods, they suit me better.

It looks fantastic! Maybe you would enjoy it more if you start with something bigger on aida cloth? This looks kind of small and fiddly for a first attempt at cross stitch lol you did a great job though!

The size wasn't too bad actually, it's just the counting that doesn't do it for me. It's not much fun and I made so many mistakes miscounting stuff. I'm not too sad about it though, there are enough types of embroidery, I will just do something else.
