Wow, love the angular shapes. Good find!
Thimblebug: Thanks for the name of the designer. Went to her web site, she sure has some beautiful designs.

I buy counter cross stich pieces I find at yard sales and thrift shops. I feel so bad for the person who did the work and it was not appreciated for the work involved. I plan to make a quilt with the pieces I am collecting into a quilt. Ithink I will call it something like A new life for hard work. I used to do counted cross stitch and embrodiery, so I know the work put into these pieces. Same with the quilts, although I have only done wall hangings so far.

Poor irises! Why on earth would it hang next to a furnace? I take that back. After years of estate sales, I've seen much stranger things. Enjoy your new treasure!
