Good day, everyone. I hope you are enjoying your day. I thought I would post a progress report on Mary before the weekend begins. I have been experiencing a puppy dog love for antique samplers ever since I started stitching Mary. Needleprint has indeed opened up the world of needlework for me like never before:
Oh, I am telling you… each time I start on a new motif on Mary, I find a new favorite color! Don’t you just love this light blue?
I also started on a new motif with ecru floss. I am stitching the sampler as a reproduction. So, I will follow exactly what the teacher prescribes to use. Do pop on to Needleprint’s blog to see some stunning color schemes for Mary.
Thanks again for stopping by. I always enjoy having you visit.
Sooooo pretty!
Oh, Wendy — your sampler is looking so fabulous!! I wish my linen would hurry up and arrive! I can’t wait to get started!!
Hi Wendy, it’s coming along very nicely. You make me want to pick up cross stitch again. I have alphabets sampler I want do one day. Mary Wigham reminds me of it. Enjoy
Love the blue and the green! Have a wonderful Thursday Wendy :0)
Nice job Wendy — the colors are so pretty. Marcy
Hello Wendy
I’m about to start my own Mary Wigham sampler. I only found it this morning on Needleprint and fell in love with it straight away. I’m getting my fabric tomorrow and will dedicate Saturday arvo to stitching. Such a pretty sampler and mysterious too because we don’t have the whole pattern yet.
Cheers – Joolz
I understand your love for Mary, It’s happening to me too :D
Your petite point looks stunning. I feel so much respect for those that stitch big pieces in 1/1.
Your Mary will be a wonderful reproduction!!
Your Mary is looking lovely. I love working over 1. – Sandra.
