The designer's name for my bkmk – Irene Tomlinson. I used Sulky #12 variegated thread. This is bucks point and it is supposed to represent the Cosmos flowers which bloom in the veld and by the roadsides around Easter time here.

It is said that the first seeds were imported in the horse feed brought to South Africa during the Anglo Boer Wars and so were distributed along the way from Durban to Johannesburg.
