Just finished framing this, myself, in a frame I found in the discount section of Hobby Lobby. It was a gift from Claudia at Dutch Treat Designs after a lecture at the Delaware Valley Historic Sampler Guild. I stitched it on 36 ct BOAF Sandpiper with AVAS silks…. Over one. I used a full cross…. looking back I’m not sure why I did, but maybe the dark colors weren’t covering to my liking. It would have gone a lot faster with a tent stitch!!! LOL.
I started this in September of 2023 and finished it last week. The size is 5X7. I had to add the lace at the bottom to make it fit!
Thanks for stopping by and your "twisted threads" of friendship!

Congratulations Stasi: It is a lovely design, wonderful framing choice, I frame 99% of my stitching myself unless it is something I will enter in the fair.

It is a beauty, Stasi! Congratulations on moving it from the WIP pile into the fully finished pile.
ReplyDeleteReally such a beautiful finish, Stasi! I have only stitched a bit of over one on 40 ct., but never a whole piece like you did on this 36 ct. Really impressive! Enjoy your week! ♥
