Question
I was told of some beautiful cross stitch projects currently available in the Charleston, SC, area that are of particular mansions (not just Rainbow Row).  I'm interested in both the patterns used and, possibly, in purchasing one.  I understand they are matted and framed and can run from $200 up to $350.  Are you familiar with these or do you know whom I should contact?

Answer
Hello, Mary :)

You might be able to do a search on the internet using either Google, or Yahoo, or similar for:

"Rainbow Row" cross stitch patterns

Also, you might be able to find the patterns that you're looking for on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com

Click on "Crafts", and the go to "Cross Stitch", and then click on "Patterns", and then do a search for "Rainbow Row", or "mansions".

Other than those areas to search through, I don't know where else you might be able to find them.  Perhaps call your local craft stores, too, to see if they've seen these or heard of them.

I hope this helps.  Good luck, and happy stitching! :)

Sincerely,

Angela :)

I have 22+ years of cross stitching experience, which includes stitching on Aida, evenweave linen, vinyl canvas, and have stitched a design on a cotton t-shirt using waste canvas. I have also worked with beads and blending filament in quite a few projects. I have made many projects which include cross stitched mugs, a keychain, pictures, magnets, and the cotton t-shirt. I can answer questions pertaining to preparing and cleaning fabric, preparing clothing for stitching, how many threads to be used on which Aida cloth, and will try to help you to the best of my ability with other questions you may have. I am prompt in my responses and usually answer within 24 hours from when you ask your question. I look forward to helping you. :)
