    Thanks everyone for all your comments.
    To answer some of the questions I read:

    The pattern name is Oriental Garden Appliscape.
    I got the design from the "secrets of" website.
    http://www.secretsof.com
    The designer is Ananda Smith of Ananda's Divine Designs.

    She has many different patterns in her Appliscape line.


    The design isn't hard to embroider. It is time consuming as you have to correctly place small pieces of fabric where indicated and trim each one before the satin stitches are sewn. She gives excellent directions with pictures.
    Then you have to line up each block to create the whole scene. Not really hard.
