Gentle Friends, I finished up the HA sampler, and here's a snap...
"Heaven Above" - Midsummer Night Designs
40ct LL - Pearled Barley
Recommended Floss
4/11 - 5/12/22
A fun little stitch that seemed to work up quickly and now it's on to another sampler... I think I'm going to keep on stitching from stash for the next two projects. The next piece I'm stitching came straight from my stash pile... and was pulled entirely from stash.... I've had this chart sort of hovering in the background for years. I always enjoy stitching Quaker pieces so here's a snap...
"M. Quertier 1799" from The Scarlet Letter
36ct Hot Mess from WDW
The 2 main silk colors I am using are Gloriana "Seaweed" and Silk 'N Colors "Tapestry Green"
I am also going to spot stitch in some Gloriana "Dried Pink Roses" and Elizabethan Green" - The sampler was originally stitched in all Black... but I'm not trying for a repro look and I choose my own path and colors.....

What a beautiful finish, Edgar! What a lovely start on the Quaker piece! Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteI stitched M Quertier a few years ago, she is a lovely sampler. And Ann Grimshaw is also a beautiful Quaker girl
ReplyDeleteJust glorious and it does look like an enjoyable design to work,
ReplyDeleteespecially the angels.... Your own "Guardian" must be proud of
your choices... Good for you ! The Quaker piece in your selection of colors should prove interesting..

I love the happy colors you used in Heaven Above. The Quaker piece also intrigues me.
ReplyDeleteHeaven Above is gorgeous Edgar! The little cat and dog angels just melt my heart.
ReplyDeleteHA is a bright, sunny, piece...nice finish! But, I am partial to Quaker pieces myself. Have several in the "stash"...one of these days! ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteYour finish is beautiful. I like the new piece that you have started.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful.
