Today I finished the stitching on Ann Roberts from Hands Across The Sea Samplers. This beautiful sampler was a kit I received from my children for Christmas 2019. I am not the best at finishing things so I am super happy about this finish.
Ann is stitched on 40 count Weeks Dye Works Zweigart linen (color straw) using soie d’alger silks from Au Ver A Soie. I stitched in hand because of my shoulder issues and am quite pleased with the results. I hope to stitch my next project on a frame since it is both faster and my tension is a bit more even.
What is the next project? I have not decided on my next stitching project but up next is a Christmas 2020 present …
This is part of the Star Wars series from Lego. It should be a fun build at 625 pieces.
Stay safe, wear a mask!
