Two samplers reproduced after 19th century Dutch samplers – most likely from the Aalsmeer region in the province of Noord Holland.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
The first pattern is 157 by 150 crosses, and the 2nd pattern is just one cross wider. Below are two charts indicating stitched size estimates and floss requirements for various linens and aida. Calculations of floss are based on working with two strands over two on 28- through to 36-count linen (or 2 strands over one on 14- through to 18-count aida). Higher counts are worked with one strand.
This sampler would look fantastic worked in Roxy Floss Co’s “Falu Red” – a lively and subtly variegated red perfect for a sampler like this. As an alternative, you could opt for DMC 3777. I will be stitching mine on Roxy Floss Co linen “Porcelain”. Linen and floss are available through Evertote in Canada (www.evertote.ca).
