Kit Includes: Beads, treasures, perforated paper/pvc, floss, needles, magnet, chart and instructions. Finished size: 2.5" x 2.5".
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 on 12/28/2022 - 1st Mill Hill I did my first one and filled it with batting, for the antennas i used two threads and covered lightly in glue and bent them accordingly. Then added a decorative trim to finish it off.
from United States on 05/06/2022 - Monarch Butterfly The Monarch Butterfly is beautiful with the colors of the thread and beads chosen. I couldn’t do the charm though. Instructions didn’t make it clear so I used the orange beads instead.
from United States on 02/17/2021 - Beautiful This pattern is easy to do. As you stitch, it grows into a beautiful butterfly. One of my favorite kits! If you are a butterfly lover, you will love this!

from United States on 06/23/2017 - Best kits I love Mill Hill kits. There is always more than enough thread and beads. Plus they are super fun to stitch.
from United States on 04/13/2017 - NICE I have done this kit once before and have made it into a pin. This kit in particular will be part of a 3 piece butterfly display in a shadow box.
from United States on 04/05/2016 - A beautiful butterfly I like all of the Mill Hill beaded cross stitch kits, but this is one of my favorites, along with the Swallowtail Butterfly. They are easy and fairly quick to make and look great displayed in a shadow box.
from United States on 08/03/2015 - Deceptively Simple As a disclaimer, this was the first Mill Hill beaded kit I have bought/made, and now I want loads more! It shipped in a timely manner and fit perfectly in my mailbox. It came in a small zipped package, with beads grouped into two other zipped bags, which were easy to sort. There are definitely extra beads. Don't worry if you're the kind of person who loses a few you will not run out. The only downside was that the threads weren't sorted at all. It took me a moment to differentiate the oranges, but the directions list the amount of each color, so that helped. It's hard to tell on the picture listed here on the site, but there ARE beads in the orange section. I'd say it's not quite half beads, half actual stitches. As a lover of beads, I didn't mind, but I was like, "Oh! There's more! Yay!"The directions are clear, the chart is easy to understand, and the supplies given are top notch. Definitely worth the money.
from United States on 07/29/2014 - So Pretty! This is a great quick project that turns out beautifully. Was able to complete this in just a couple of evenings- makes me smile when I see it on my fridge every day!
from United States on 01/22/2014 I have monarches all over my yard, this is a very realistic likeness. Thank you.
from United States on 01/05/2014 - Beautiful The colors of the picture do not do the finished product justice. This is a really beautiful butterfly. The directions are easy to follow, the chart is clear and big enough to see easily, and if you have never worked one of these beaded kits you will enjoy yourself with this one.
from United States on 11/11/2013 - Great kit! Clearly marked and fun kit to do. Good for beginner or advanced, although the wing veins can be alittle tricky.
