Sandra Gilmore's canvases are distributed by Fleur de Paris if you want your favorite shop to order this for you while you wait for Laura's guide.

UPDATE:  Terri stitched this using a guide from The Tinsmith's Wife which tells you which lights to order from Amazon to put on the back side.  Contact the shop via their website (second link below) or their Facebook page.
