Sampler Blog Along

Firstly I must say 'thanks' to Chookyblue for organising this sampler blog along.
Most of these samplers are unframed , although I still have many in frames ,I will leave that for another post maybe.
As there are quite a few pictures I won't include a lot of dialogue as you will want to visit all the other participants. Blackbird designs from one of their cross stitch books.

I love anything quirky and alphabet going around the corner attracted me to this sampler.

I am a fan of 'With my Needle' patterns by Ellen Chester. This needlecase is yet to be made up

as are the accessories, one day !

some more pincushion covers to become pincushions.

not so sure I like the bright colours in this sampler

maybe I will hang it on the clothesline for about a year.

This is a Quaker by Good Huswife (I think). The pattern was called Little Red R

I said I loved quirky

another Goode Huswife I 'm sure

I really enjoy stitching samplers with many motifs

another Goode Huswife pattern, using some of my coffee dyed linen

Samplers with a Christmas theme were also a favourite

another little quirky sampler

in my favourite colour

This sampler has a lot of my own touches to it. From memory it was a French inspired sampler I added and changed many of the motifs

This remains unframed as when I completed it I wasn't in love with it, I thought it a little bland.

Now if you have got to the end of this and would like to be in the draw for this sampler, please leave a comment and I will draw this, hopefully next Saturday before I leave for Germany.

I hope you have enjoyed this Sampler Show and Tell and please Blog A long to the other girls.

I have tried to add all of the links but can't seem to do it please check out Chooky Blue for a list.

till next time

Happy Stitching
