Mildred's Sampler

Mildred's Sampler
Blackbird Designs
40ct. white linen
Home-dyed floss
Date started stitching: April 20, 2012 
Date finished stitching: April 26, 2012
Date finishing completed: April 28, 2012 


The original pattern shows this stitched in 1 color. I used a bunch of my home-dyed threads and brightened it up a bit. This was stitched for Joan as she was my partner in a Friends Through Threads Friendship Exchange.

Happy Stitching :)

In this colorful way, it reminds me of those Birds of a Feather designs - were they French?? Very pretty!
