Thanks. I did another one for her several years ago. I don't know why she likes this type of pattern. When I say that it was fun, I should have said that it almost stitched itself. It required very little concentration. I had a mishap with the variegated floss. I bought the pattern in San Antonio and didn't begin stitching it until 5 years later. She had sold me only one of each color, so I ordered more from ECS. What a difference. The ECS ones all matched but not the original floss. I did a lot of blending and it turned out okay. I was concerned that I would have to frog, frog, frog. I wish that patterns would state how many skeins of each color are required.

I can't find the first one I did. Im thinking it was called the Reading Room. It was smaller and really nice. I'm not a huge fan of the primitive stuff but DD likes them.

Oh I love the saying mostly. Although the rest is cute. My family does LOTS of reading so it would be so nice to make it and give it as a gift. Or maybe hang it above my chair where I read. :) Thank you so much for the name and the information on the pattern. I will search it out.
