For the Love of Stitching Sampler Section 11

The next section of my band sampler was completed it November  2005.

Over the next couple of weeks I will talk about each band in this section which I hope readers will enjoy seeing. 

There is a mix of even weave stitches on the sampler which I will discuss in future posts 

The sample is worked on Aida and most of the threads were hand dyed by me.

In case a search engine has landed you here this post is part of series documenting a hand embroidered band sampler, which now measures over 44 feet long and is still growing as I still stitch it. All posts in the series are in the category For the Love of Stitching band sampler 

If you want on overview of each section of the sampler articles are listed below.

This looks spectacular! Perhaps it's also the colours that really draw me in, but the stitching is so textured yet tidy. Gorgeous stitching.
