Ha! I got it right every time! Perhaps because I saw one of these needlework embellished designer things recently at Nieman Marcus or Saks. Close up the stitching, which was cross stitch, was not very well done. Great idea, poor execution.
You are too cool, Liz! I'm sorry to hear what Nieman Marcus/Saks is carrying isn't that well done. I think we can all do better. Who wants to volunteer?
