This Quaker style sampler was first released back in 2016. It has now been mildly redesigned with new artwork and an updated booklet.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
This design has a stitched surface measuring 207 crosses wide by 351 crosses high, with approximately 25443 crosses (depending on personalisation). Please see the graph below for size and floss estimates. Floss estimates are based on working with two pulled strands (14 – 18-count Aida or 28 – 36-count linen) or one strand (20-count Aida / 40-count linen and higher). It is, of course, up to you how many strands you want to use for your project. A three-cross greyed-out overlap area is found from the 2nd pattern page onwards to help you find your way.
You could personalise the sampler by stitching your initials in the empty spaces, or by removing one of the small elements in between the medallions. An alphabet with upper and lower case letters can be found at the end of this booklet, together with a set of numbers.
As this is a monochrome design, you may stitch it with whatever colour (or colours) you wish. If you want to approach the look of the cover, I recommend the following Roxy Floss Co. flosses and linens (all exclusively available through www.evertote.ca in Canada). “Falu Red” is a gorgeous red and would be perfect for this sampler. “Arrowroot” would make for a perfect fabric to stitch on, as would “Porcelain”. As Roxy Floss Co. offers a wide range of colours, I recommend browsing the Evertote website to see what truly speaks to you.
