I have finally finished #17 New England Schoolgirl Sampler. It was stitched on 36ct linen with one strand of silk. The top part grassy area and sheep were stitched over one. It is not even close to being stitched as originally charted. I switched a few colors, omitted all the Queen stitches and, redesigned the side border a bit. As always, I got antsy about finishing it about three quarters of the way though. I'm glad it's done.Wednesday, July 23, 2008
