As promised, here is my progress on Rebecca Robinson. Ohhhh, I'm so in love with this sampler. I know, I know, I'm repeating myself from my last post, but the more I stitch, the more I love it. The quirky little motifs are a little peculiar looking, but quick to do. I'm thinking of changing some of the colors. There's a whole lotta dark green going on and some of the called for colors don't have enough variance. Poor Rebecca probably just used what she had on hand.
My friend, Alice has asked me to show the wall where I hung Sarah Hartley. I've shown this wall in progress before, but I'm constantly rearranging it. We have a TV in the middle, and the next two photos show the samplers on either side. Yes, I know that some are hung low. I'm using all available space, lol. I also know that some look a bit crooked. It's a never ending battle to keep them hanging straight.

Ack! How beautiful! Don't you start me on this sampler too! lol! And your sampler walls! I wish I had that much space to hang things. I so want to do Catherine Maudsley --isn't that what that one is? You keep making me want to stitch things! :D
Looks fantastic!!! I love seeing sampler walls. Happy 4th, Tanya
Ooooh, I love those Sampler Walls! Just gorgeous. Is that the Red House Sampler by Brenda Keyes? If it is I've been eyeing that one too! YOU, are on my Sampler Stitcher pedestal!
Have a lovely weekend.
I'm in awe! I love your wall of samplers ~ beautiful!
Happy Fourth of July!

Your walls are beautiful! The wip is gorgeous too.
I love your wall. So many beautiful samplers! And I also love Rebecca a lot. I might have to get this chart (dang)! Everytime I see another project that you're doing, I start falling in love with them. Anyway, great progress and I can't wait to see more of her.
Rebecca is gorgeous, Tanya! Love it love it love it! I am also experiencing sampler wall envy... I can hardly wait til I have enough completed projects to even think about dedicating even a small section of wall to them, lol! Fantastic work as always!!
Beautiful work and your sampler wall is to die for! Love it...and all your wonderful samplers...what a treasure you have there Tanya. Thanks for the inspiration! Enjoy the 4th of July weekend. pj
Your sampler wall is gorgeous! What a lovely way to display all your stitching treasures.
Oh my gosh! Rebecca is stunning! I love all the little motifs! When I place my finally place my order, this will have to be on the list! And I never tire of seeing your sampler walls!
Gorgeous! Your stitching and framing are just inspirational. Seriously beautiful :-).
LOVE Rebecca - you are leading me down the garden path - apparently there are a group of us following the piper down the path - your sampler wall is wonderful! Happy
4th! Melody
Rebecca Robinson is a very unsual pattern and its certainly growing on me too. A sampler wall is never done as each time you add a new framed piece its as if it needs a shuffle. Its looks gorgeous so far though. I have decided to stitch about 15 samplers and then frame and hang them all at once avoiding the shuffling later. Our walls are unforgiving when it comes to drilling new holes. Once something is hung it has to stay that way. Not so much fun I know so I must get a move on with my stitching.

Rebecca is gorgeous and I'm drooling over your sampler wall
Your sampler wall is a feast for the eyes. Wonderful, wonderful!
LOVE your beautiful wall full of gorgeous samplers!!! thanks for sharing:)
Rebecca is so beautiful. You also pick the most beautiful samplers. I have been eyeing this one off in the SL catalogue as well. Looks like I will have to send another order to the US.
I really love your sampler wall. It is really beautiful and you have something that I sincerely wish I had to hang all of mine. Space. I have to keep replacing mine as one gets finished.
Will keep my eye out for the John Adams mini series. Hopefully I will get to see it one day. I love watching historical dramas. You learn so much. -Sandra.
Rebecca looks great! Your sampler wall is wooooooooonderful! I love all the samplers you've stitched and the placement is fabulous. The crocks at the bottom? OMG. LOVE LOVE LOVE them.
Love your sampler wall.
Simply beautiful, both sampler and sampler wall :)
Great progress Tanya! I just love it! I love your sampler walls too! You are such an inspiration to me! :)
So many beautiful samplers on your walls !!
Something for you on my blog :-)
WOW!!! Where to start?! Rebecca is Outstanding, you are really making progress, you will be done with her before you know it, adding her to your samplers, you have great taste in your framing too. Do you do all your own framing? Do you lace the back? Your walls look like a museum!!
Everyone of us dreams of the Sampler Wall in our lives! Yours is just wonderful! I'm loving your Rebecca, as well. I can't get another sampler right now..I just can't...I really can't....:}
Thanks for sharing such an inspirational sampler wall! I'm totally in awe!
Your house and samplers are stunning. I would love to visit.
