That is a really nice sampler design....and it is stamped! Most of the samplers I have done are from charts, and over 2, and kind of hard....a stamped one would be wonderful and I really like the overall design and look. It will be really pretty. When you get ready to frame, look into the "old" way of framing them to give it a more antique look. If you want to know how email me! I love your sampler!

Looks wonderful, a good snow day or two project. I made a samler a long time ago when we first moved back to Maine. I'll have to see if I can take a picture of it. I did cross stitch and used the largest hole grid I could find....

Jack and Dave look great in their winter clothes....

How long does it take to do one of those, Nancy Jo? It's really pretty. And maybe the bells on Jack and Dave's matching(so stylish!) hats and scarves will keep them awake. ;)

Dear Nancy,

You have talent and patience. I like the trditional look of the sampler; it will even look older tea- stained!

That's a nice sampler. I did a small quilt for my mom like that of the four seasons. It took a long time.

Wow Nancy! That is so beautiful! So much hard work involved! I really like the sampler. I have been thinking about doing one of these lately. I want to start embroidering.

Thank you girls. I love doing them. I will have to take some pictures of the ones I have made over the years. Yes Jeannie, I want a frame that looks like it belongs to the sampler. I will check with you when I get it done.
Jack and Dave say Hi right back.
