Mississippi Cross Stitch

Mississippi is the latest state to be added to the US state cross stitch series.

The house featured in this design is called Cedarhurst and was built in 1857 in Holly Springs. The house was home to Sherwood Bonner, who moved to Boston to become an author but later returned to Holly Springs.

More State Cross Stitch Patterns

I've added two more states this past week!  Massachusetts and Michigan.

The Massachusetts cross stitch pattern features the Crowninshield-Bentley House in Salem, MA built in 1727 by a fish merchant and sea captain. You can find the Massachusetts cross stitch pattern in the store.

The Michigan cross stitch pattern features the Sand Point light house built 1867-67. The lantern is made of cast iron from the UP! The house faces land instead of out to the lake as one might expect. You can find the Michigan cross stitch pattern in the store.

And finally I have updated the California cross stitch pattern with a more appropriate house.

This one is the John Marsh (an early pioneer to CA) house built in the mid 1800s.  He is credited with being California's first doctor although he had no medical education!  You can find the California cross stitch pattern in the store.
