Over the last several months, I've been stitching one Dropcloth Sampler after another, and they have given me so much relaxing stitching time. This latest one is the Meadow Sampler, the first round one of the bunch.
It was stitched completely with #8 perle cotton, with me selecting the colors purely at whim as I went. I've been adding a couple of new spools to my collection every month or so, and this is the first of my samplers that has just a bit of a variegated thread in it. The design measures 7" in diameter and was finished off with a machine-sewn basting stitch until I decide what to do with it. The stitching itself seems to be the point of these for me, so who knows what I'll do with the stack I'm accumulating. Time will tell.
