      The Embroideress

      There is apparently no such word as Embroideress! Well, that was until I designed and stitched this divine sampler! The design is counted from a chart but I have stolen a few stitches from the surface embroiderers. The kit is supplied on washed unbleached linen and includes pre-sorted stranded cottons (floss) and hand painted silk threads. Choose whether you require the chart pack or the complete kit from the drop down menu.

      Charlie's Secret Garden

      This is a beautiful band sampler with an enormous variety of stitches and techniques. There is a padded heart roughly in the middle of the sampler which hides my secret. Early in 2007, we lost our much loved dog, Charlie and so I have used some of his blonde hair to pad the heart and remind me of the fun he had in his Secret Garden. The kit is available on washed unbleached linen only. The chart pack includes all the instructions but is printed paper only. No embellishments are included.

      The Flowery Mead

      This is an exquisite project to stitch with a large variety of counted stitches and small Hardanger motifs worked on 28-count unbleached linen. My example was completed with a folded hem, but this could be framed if preferred. You need to have worked on linen before and be used to counting from a chart
