Summer Bouquet #6 (Jean Smith and Ridgewood Needlepoint)

I was quite excited to see that Ridgewood Needlepoint has a stitch guide for one of Jean Smith's florals, since stitch guides for these beauties are rare.  You can buy just the canvas from Ridgewood but if you buy the thread kit, the stitch guide is free.
