I did not sign up for this Mystery Sampler so would be interested in someone's charts. Or would you like to exchange for the Country Stitches Mystery SAL charts (3 parts also). pjstitcher@mchsi.compjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13407348706719967358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323523517197513554.post-28201129006956837702012-01-20T02:27:56.452-06:002012-01-20T02:27:56.452-06:00oooo glad you had a good time at the retreat and l...oooo glad you had a good time at the retreat and love the little sampler dedicated to your grand mother ...well done on spring row and the BBD finish as well :) and I am curious to know what your KAL turns out to be :) love mouse xxxxMousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11672749994268562607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323523517197513554.post-8925858881648382212012-01-19T22:29:15.341-06:002012-01-19T22:29:15.341-06:00Love your finishes.

I've never seen the CHS design before, but great way to make it personal to you.<br /><br />I love how you did the fall and winter rows back to back. I have both of them stitched, but sitting unfinished in a pillowcase. After seeing your post, I tried to finish them the same way, but unfortunately one is stitched on 36 count, and the other on 40 count - just too much difference in size and the fabric to be able to do them back to back.Mindihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01849670556761482289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323523517197513554.post-12948310283465189202012-01-19T19:46:46.041-06:002012-01-19T19:46:46.041-06:00Yea Jill!
