Teresa Wentzler says of this exquisite sampler for the counted cross stitch enthusiast: "The inspiration for this piece came from a photograph of a piece of golden antique ribbon, which was used as the motifs at top and bottom of the sampler. The splendor of harvest time is captured in this sampler stitched in shades of cream, peach, gold, olive and antique violet. Specialty stitches and some beads are combined with cross stitch to create several different motifs including wheat stalks, apples, and a novelty alphabet. A border accented with more specialty stitches and beads finishes the design." You'll work on cream linen fabric in a variety of stitches including : Algerian eyelet, upright cross, diamond eyelet, Smyrna cross, straight and diagonal satin, herringbone, three-sided, barrier, long-armed cross, knitting, lazy-daisy to create this piece. Suitable for experienced stitchers, you'll stay challenged throughout the design, and your finished piece will be a work of art to treasure for generations!
