In my haste to get Sarah ready, I mistakenly listed Belle Soie Silk Old Crow as Black Crow in the fibers needed list. I had "crows" on my mind, but I must have been focused on the color rather than their age. The change is noted on future packaging, but if you get one of the first copies, please be aware. There are conversions to DMC and Crescent Colour's Hand Dyed Floss included as well.
Also, my model was stitched on 40ct. Meadow Rue from Lakeside Linen. My piece of fabric was a lighter version than the current Meadow Rue available. The model is currently visiting the The Attic , and they have suggested vintage Lt. Examplar as being "an almost spot on match substitute".
Thanks for the lovely comments about Sarah. I always love hearing from you.

Tanya - sarah is such a beautiful sampler - I love your repro and glad you used some overdyed silks in the charting - I love them - can't wait to get Sarah - enjoy your weekend- Melody
So fun to see all of your antique finds! The spinning wheel is perfect with your samplers. I'm glad you had a great trip, and hope to see your stitching soon.
I hope it cools off soon because 116 sound like pure misery!
Well actually i use a brand called gatbz and is really cool, i never had problem with it.
