Isn't this a pretty sampler? I can't take the credit for it - it's part of a stitching round robin. Ten women began mailing a piece of fabric around, each one adding their personal touch to the fabric. I was the final stitcher on the above sampler and contributed the three round flowers with the red French knots around them. The sampler has arrived at its rightful home. I'm waiting for mine to arrive.

ReplyDeleteI'm so NOT an embroiderer but maybe could have managed to add a piece of vintage lace!
When do you expect to receive you own sampler? Hope you're going to blog about it?

ReplyDeleteHow unusual. I have done several R Rs, but only in cross stitch. The embellishments are very attractive.
