 UPDATE*UPDATE I FINALLY HAVE THE PATTERN!!! My sister visited today and brought me a stack of cross stitch books that have been in her attic. Not knowing I was looking for this particular one. So it’s not just a found pattern, it’s THE pattern our Mom worked from. My sister had a whole box of patterns and magazines from Mom’s house she never went through. Thank goodness she doesn’t throw anything away!! I know this is a long shot, but would anyone recognize this pattern? This was a piece that my Mama started before she passed many years ago. I found it along with an unfinished quilt. She had all of the floss to go with it but no pattern. I think I remember it from the seventies in a kit with four country scenes. Or it could have been from a pattern book. If someone has the pattern or knows the book or kit publisher , I would love to be able to finish it. Thank you for any assistance in finding this pattern. Crossing my fingers !

Sorry I can't be of any help, but I wish you the best! That's a beautiful piece and it would be wonderful to finish what your mom started.

Thank you Krista for trying! I just feel like a Farmgirl somewhere has got to have this pattern in their stash. I remember it being a set that included a mailbox, a milk can, and maybe an old wagon. There were different wildflowers in each one so you could group them together, and all of them had fence posts except maybe the mailbox.

It’s so wonderful Heather! My sister says, “I brought you a few cross stitch books because you will be more apt to do them than I will.” When I looked through them I squeeled when I saw it. I gave her a great big hug, it was a good day!!

Thank you Debbie, it’s not the set I was thinking of, so I would have been looking for the wrong thing. This was a lifesaver for sure.

So glad that your sister brought you that pattern! And to have it be the exact one your Mom was using is even more awesome! Enjoy your cross stitching!
