Finally, I found the Just Nan's Minerva's Mouse original pattern with the owl trinket AND the Barnabee's Bride Pattern with the bumble bee trinket box.  Also found a source that could get me the Noella bird and another owl.  I felt like it was Christmas when I went to the mailbox today!!  These were my ebay battles of last week!

Thank you LouAnna!  I have been looking on ebay forever to see is anyone would give these up eventually.  It took some tough bidding wars (I lost one that I wanted) but I finally got these two. The patterns were on here, but I didn't know what other items were included in the original patterns. It's a happy day, lol!  Guess I'll be back to stitching humbugs and berries again since my granddaughters took the only two I had made up for their birthdays!

That was quick. I'm glad someone was able to help you. They must be really rare, there is almost no info about them online.

They are rare and the designer only puts out, I've heard, between 500 - 800 of the limited edition designs, so when the shops sell out, you can't get them anymore.  You have to wait until you can find them at estate sales, or someone decides to get rid of stuff, or you luck up and find someone who knows where to get an OOP one.  I check ebay often because we don't have that many estate sales with cross stitch items that I'm aware of.  These kits were from limited editions in 2009 or somewhere around there, maybe earlier.  I guess that's why she is so popular!
