Description
From Hands Across the Sea Samplers:
This colourful sampler made our hearts skip several beats when we first saw her, and we were beyond thrilled when we managed to acquire the sampler to share her with you.
What a shame that the sampler maker did not record their name and a date; if they had, time would not have stolen their memory away!
The stitches used are cross stitch over 2 threads of linen and the design is suitable for needleworkers of all abilities. The sampler can be stitched on Aida, Linaida, or linen.
This delightful sampler has been reproduced using a palette of 28 colours from Au Ver à Soie’s range of Soie 100.3. We have provided conversions for Soie d’Alger and DMC .
The model was stitched on linen overdyed to a shade of Marbled Khaki from xJuDesigns. Another linen to consider is Woodsmoke from Tabbycat Linen, which is an excellent match. However, we do recommend that you stitch the sampler on your preferred colour and count of Aida, Linaida, or linen.
The design area is 385 stitches (w) x 281 stitches (h). Our calculations have included a 3″ margin for finishing and framing.
