Cross-Stitch Sampler Pattern AND A GARDEN GREW by Karen Kluba from Rosewood Manor, S-1125

 The booklet has 22 pages, which include lots of mini samplers and ideas for using this design.

DESIGN SIZE: 290 X 290 stitches

SUGGESTED FABRIC: Picture This Plus, 32 ct Belfast Ale

NOTE: FABRIC NEEDS TO BE DARK ENOUGH SO THAT LIGHT FLOSS COLORS SHOW!

Verse: "Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, and forgot to put a soul into."

Correction:  In Section 1, the floss color for the entire stem of the tall flower (with the diamond shaped stem, next to the first butterfly, upper left-hand corner on chart) is DMC 935

FLOSS: DMC: 121 COLORS ARE USED. Therefore, we am not listing them here. Also, Kreinik Metallics 5530 Very Fine Braid#4, and Kreinik Blending Filament#100. Check out our website for Kreinik threads.

Karen's style is refined, which you can witness in fine flowers and design elements. It creates gentle, lacey effect and elevates the whole piece to a higher level of needlework. A perfectly vintage look is achieved by hand-dyed linen and threads.

 The piece uses mostly full cross stitches, backstitches, and Algerian Eyelets, which are featured and explained in schematics in the booklet. The English Alphabet and all numbers are also provided in schemes to personalize your sampler.

Happy Stitching!
