Actually, I looked at the pillow again and it is stitched "1987" so the pattern could be 1986 or 1987. I think I may have found it on an auction site, but there's no picture or clear description of the project, and I'd like specific input to be certain.

While looking for something else, I may have found the pattern you were looking for. It's a christmas wreath (picture shows a pillow), and the name is Dresden Plate Christmas Wreath. It is in the nov/dec 1987 issue of Women's Circle Counted Cross Stitch Magazine.

Email me at PeggyAull@hotmail.com if this is the one you are looking for.

Hi Peggy-I would love a copy of this pattern also (Dresden Plate Christmas Wreath).

My e-mail is: sderk51@bex.net and please put in the subject cross stitch or I won't answer. Let me know how much or what you would like in exchange.
