The People's Choice - Traditional Samplers

 



Every month, on the first Saturday, Jo at Serendipidous Stitching hosts a Stitch A Long, with the topics chosen by her readers. This month's topic is traditional samplers. I have done some samplers, but maybe not so much in the traditional category.  Anyway, here's what I have this month.  


I stitched this reproduction type sampler with silk threads and finished it into a wallet.





I made this little sampler with Danish Flower Thread, but haven't finished it into anything yet.





The Puzzle Purse was a project when I was in the Carolina Sampler Guild.






This Summer Sampler Box and little toolies were designed by Denise Harrington Pratt and a class I took at an EGA seminar.



The pin cushion I use most is a little sampler.





I stitched these twelve sampler pears, which are available as free charts from Samplers and Santas.





The Sneek Sampler is a work in progress.



I like traditional samplers, but counting can be a challenge!

  2. I love samplers and these are such wonderful ideas and so beautifully executed. They also look rather complicated -- I can see why the counting could be tricky!

  5. Thanks for taking part in The People's Choice this month. I love all your samplers, such a wide variety of finishing techniques too.
    I love that puzzle purse, I have saved the photo to try recreate it in paper first.

  8. Great samplers! Love how you used some un-traditionally bright colours on some of them, too.

  9. Lovely samplers Pamela!
    The little pin cushion would have to be my favourite as I love tiny stitched items most 😁
