Today's challenge was exactly that for me - since I am sewing impaired and color challenged. Oh, well.
When I saw the teapot I immediately thought of this DP but then I simply could not figure out a layout to include the other colors. Instead of 42,000 stitches I probably have 4.2, and they are on the ribbon LOL! I sort of did cross stitches at the bottom and then I covered them with the scallops!
Look here Forums at Splitcoaststampers or here Forums at Splitcoaststampers
for more information.
By the way, I normally would think it is a great idea to combine these challenges - I often do that anyway.

I can see the little floral pattern in the quilt on your card, for sure. And I am sure when we add all the stitches up between us we will have more than enough.
