For the Love of Stitching Sampler - Band 385

This area on section 28 of the For the Love of Stitching band sampler is a pattern of straight stitches and eyelet stitches, both of which, have been pulled.

Threads  

A soft Danish cotton  and perle #8 (DMC) 

Fabric:

26 cnt linen

Size:

The sampler is 15 cm (6 inches) wide and all the sections are stitched together in one long band sampler.

The sampler is currently 44 ft 5 inches or 533 inches (1353.83 centimetres) or 14.8 yards  (13.53 metres) long and I have more sections to add. I will stop when I get bored with playing with it! 

Date:

This section of the sampler was completed in January  2008.

The back story:

This series is documenting a long hand embroidered band sampler, which is still growing as I still stitch it. More about the band sampler are in the category For the Love of Stitching band sampler

Sharon, did you add your classes to the site Creative Classes? I think you should and I think it's free too, check it out if you haven't already! The more the merrier, and it's easy to find classes if they are in one place! :-)
