Browsing for ideas for a friend I came across this set that was being auctioned at ebay. I loved it (even thought it is missing 2 states which I will complete myself). It has 2 things that I love - flowers and cross stitch. Even more, the cross stitch part can be done in parts. Not a big piece of fabric to start with, excellent size to put away and have close by when I get a bit of time. I can try to set a goal of 1 or 2 flowers per month and not feel overwhelm. The only problem? A lot of people want it. Maybe for the same reasons? So, I bid as much as I will pay for it and went to work (the auction ended while I was at work). So, I did not know until next day if I won or not.
As you can tell, I did :) I looked everywhere else for the set and I could not see it. I know the set was made in Denmark awhile back, but I don't know the year. This as you can imagine will be a big project and I will start as soon as I decide what type of fabric to get. Yeah, it is an indulgence... but I hope to make it into a quilt for keeps. Now I set myself for the record. ;)
