Judith started cross stitching a simple sampler today.

I love cross stitch samplers! I come across a few at antique malls and always wish I could buy one. I love the sayings they used to stitch. You'll have to post a finished product!
ReplyDeleteGetting her started made me want to cross stitch again. I haven't done so in about 12 years. I will post a picture, this is a very simple sampler from a homeschool in the woods pack, a great first project.
DeleteHow fun. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 10 my mom helped me design a sampler, which I entered in the county fair. She made me finish the border first, which I remember being very monotonous, but when it was finished my parents had it framed for me and I have it hanging in my sewing area now. I have done quite a bit of cross stitching in my time, but not for years now.
ReplyDeleteI used to do lots of cross stitch before I had my crew. This one is super simple, only x's and a little running stitch around the border.
