UPDATE: My fabric arrived yesterday, and I now have all four patterns. I didn't think I could cross stitch anymore because of my eyes but as long as I use 14 count instead of linens, etc., I am okay with my readers on. I love the fabric I got because it looks like the sky. The photo doesn't look as beautiful as it is in person. I love hand-dyed fabrics! Anyway, I am ready to stitch now. Yeah!! Thanks pjaye and everyone! Oh my word, I am very good at researching and finding things but I have searched for two days, and I have gotten no where. I have contacted the lady that stitched these, and her response was "They were from some old cross stitch magazine that I no longer have. Sorry." So, I don't know the cross stitch magazine, the pattern names, nothing. My mom did three of them years ago, and she wants to do the fall sock (the only one she did not complete). And now I want them in my laundry room. We can't find anything anywhere. Mom is at a loss too and got rid of all of her magazines. So, I am hoping maybe someone can help. Does anyone know anything about these or where I can find the patterns? Thanks!

You're welcome. I was procrastinating about something else I should be doing...so this little challenge gave me an excuse not to do it for a bit longer

pjaye seriously good searching skills! Well done Patter if it's not the one you want the blurb says to checkback regularly as they are unpacking boxes. I would definitely let them know which one you are interested in. You might be offered first refusal. They might share the magazine name if you ask. Good luck.

Patter, I remember I have a huge notebook out in the garage full of LA stuff from the good old days. I won't be able to look until later this afternoon but I'll see if I have that pattern.

Wow, just wow. The peas are amazing. And I must say, back when I was embroidering (I’m afraid to even try anymore, due to old-lady vision and arthritis problems) ... I only did antique sampler reproductions or knock-offs. But those are really, really nice. They are tempting.

Wow you are amazing peas!! Patter the eBay listing says spring/summer so I am thinking just those two.... But contact her through eBay and ask. If the others are not there at least you know you are looking for the fall/winter combination. You have all the other info.

I have read frequently that the Peas do know everything. Now I certainly believe it!

Okay. I know who I'm tagging next time I need help finding something obscure. Add me to the "that's amazing" chorus!

How awesome is that!!! My mom even has her couple in the SAME frames. Now she doubts she can get more of those frames to finish the other ones. But I am sure there may be a Pea that will find them. LOL! Y'all have been awesome!

LOL! Y'all have been awesome! I may have a few of these frames, but they are in storage. If you remind me in a few years when we move back to the States, I’ll look and see. I’m 90% sure I have a 5 x 7 frame like this, but it might be for a 4 x 6 photo.

The next time everyone is up in arms and having hissy fits about whatever crazy interpersonal board conflict is going on, I'm remembering this thread. You guys are great.

I am always just blown away by the mad Google skills of the Peas. The apron and bonnet are just beautiful. I especially love the little birds. So adorable.
