I´m participating in Blogtoberfest as well and I play with numbers to comment. Today I´m doing "round" numbers. What a pleasure to find you at 200!
The maps in embroidery loops made me wiggle in my chair out of sheer excitement. Cool!

I absolutely love these, especially the rosettes. I'm a huge fan of maps, our flat is papered with them! Best wishes, Jenni (from BYW)
