Default Orchid Cross-stitch Kit

I found this kit and it seems like it's a beautiful design but they
haven't stated who the designer might be. Does anyone have any idea?
It would affect my decision on whether or not to pick it up as I'm
planning to place an order on a couple of their other items anyway. I
tried to see where I might get the best value so that's how I came
across this site. Of course, I'd need more designs similar to it but
this one just caught my eye.

Or if anyone has any other suggestions, here's what my thoughts a
I'm trying to make a series of patterns in a similiar tone and subject
for my very long dining room wall. We have painted the dining area a
muted sage green and we have dark wood furniture that is very
contemporary and clean looking with a glass top table. I was thinking
something floral to contrast with the straight lines of the tables and
chairs and maybe warm up the room. But nothing loud that would
detract from the colors we're gong with. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Nadia

I don't know who did it, but I would like to as well. I'm not usually
a florals fan, but this - wow! It is absolutely gorgeous! I have to
put this on my wish list!

Nadia--

You might want to check out www.hofmandis.com for an extensive list of
charts, kits, etc. or Mark Staad(sp?)(designer). Mark does very
detailed beautiful flowers. I think the web site for Mark is
www.silverlining.com. Good luck and keep us posted on what you
decide.
