Carole has graciously shared photos of the ones she owns. They are in a photo album at the link below. You can play a slide show of the canvases by pushing the Slideshow button above the canvas of the chicken in a bow tie. (CHICKEN in a bow tie?!!) To end the slideshow, push your Escape key.

I've also created a second slideshow here. I'm testing new ways to show photos since the old Slide.com site I used is shutting down in March. I'll do a poll shortly asking which type slideshow you like best. (Stay tuned for that excitement. LOL)

Carole thinks there are more in the series, but only one is left at her LNS--the cat in the red ermine trimmed robe. If you are interested, give the shop a call. http://www.stitchandframelafayette.com/Needlepoint_by_Designers/Needlepoint_Designers/Julia.htm
That cat happens to be a canvas we've seen and admired before. It is on the Homestead Needlearts's website where it is called Queenie and is beautifully stitched by Cheryl Robinson. Sadly, Homestead doesn't have any of the series left. http://www.homesteadneedlearts.com/StitchersShowcase.html
Many thanks to Cheryl, to Theresa, and to Carole for help tracking that illusive sheep. Anyone who has one of the series in their shop or stash and wants to part with it, let me know by email to chillyhollow at hotmail dot com or in a Comment below. I'm still hunting that sheep!

FYI. The Picasa link goes to a "page not found" message. The Smilebox show took about 5 minutes to load.
Good to know, Karen. The Picasa album loads for me just fine and the Smilebox takes about 30 seconds to load. That's why we are doing the survey. I need a slide show that works for everyone!
I had the same problem as Karen with the Picasa link. The Smilebox loaded so slowly that I about gave up. I'd have to want to see something badly to wait for it. And for me the all the snowflake graphics distracted from the slides.
Thanks, Nancy. I want to know all the reasons folks prefer one type of slideshow over the other, so any input is very welcome.
Sorry to take so long to get to this.....Picassa would not open for me either :( Smilebox was very very slow.....
I wonder if folks have to be signed into a Google account to view Picasa albums? i am pretty sure the Smilebox problem is a slower connection, either on your computer's end or their server's, but Picasa I am not sure about.
Obviously, I need to look at alternative slide shows!
