Debbie Mumm Ciao Bella Dresser Scarf Stamped Cross Stitch Kit (14" x 39")

I have cross stitched for almost 55 yrs so I am not a new bee, but I found this preprinted item not to my liking. It was hard to sew on it. I was excited about the main item since we have deep Italian heritage but found that it did not turn out like the picture shows it. Whoever sewed the sample item I commend them but I found it hard to work with. Thanks
