Friday Flashback

 Gentle Friends, today is another smaller sampler from the sampler wall...

"Flower Basket" - from La-D-Da

I couldn't find the linen type, but I am sure I used the called-for floss.  I know this because even after all these years later I still remember that the lite blue floss used is a linen floss that, for me at least, shred all over the place as I stitched and was a nightmare to work with.  I swore then and there when I finished this piece that NEVER again would I use linen floss again... and whenever I bumped up against it being used I will always substitute cotton or silk to achieve the color and keep my sanity.
