This sampler has been in my stash a good long time. She was calling to me. I love the wonky border. The Blackbird girls reproduced Sarah from a sampler in their collection. In looking at a photograph of the original sampler, the letters were stitched in eyelets. I thought the eyelets would add interest and am also stitching the alphabet with eyelets. Either because of spacing or Sarah got tired of eyelets she only stitched 12 letters of the alphabet using eyelet.
Am hoping to finish Sarah during my Christmas break and debut her at the January stitch-in's.

You have a good beginning. I bought that one not to long ago. Maybe I will get to it this year. It looks like a delightful stitch!

ReplyDeleteI'm very interested to see the way this finishes up. After my recent visit to Shepherd's Bush, I kind of got an itch to cross-stitch again, but I am trying to control the urge. :)
ReplyDeleteI love this. Haven't seen this sampler!
ReplyDeleteI like this design, I do not remember seeing this design before, I am looking forward to seeing the finished piece.
