Beekeeper's Cottage
Designer: Shepherds Bush
Design Size:8.5 x 1.95
Fabric: 40ct. Vintage Pearled Barley
Fibers: DMC & NN
Date Started:2-25-08
Date Finished: 3-2-08
I used my own color conversion of DMC and NN, as this chart was sent to me (along with several other SB band samplers that I want to stitch) by a friend and I didn't have any of the fibers that came with the original kit. I also wanted it to be a lot smaller than the model, so that I wouldn't need to frame it and could finish it off as a pinkeep so I stitched it on 40ct. There are 15 specialty stitch bands along with the regular cross stitch bands for a total of 27 bands in this sampler and it was such a treat to stitch. I LOVE how this one turned out.
Here are a few pics of the bands...
