I will have to look the new one up, as if I need more to add to my stash

Thanks for all of the wonderful replies!! I have finished stitching both of these and quite happy with the end result
Here is the Blackbird Designs one

Just love the little birds in it, even if they were partially stitched over 1--snowflakes were as well---worth it in the end, makes it really nicely detailed

I had to redo the pics, these show the colors and details much better, my camera settings were off :?
