Our Daily Challenge 18-24 December : Stitching.

 

This has always been in my possession but I have no idea who Elizabeth Croser was !

 

It measures just under 22" square.

Made in the year William IV was crowned

I made the first shadow box as a Christmas present for my mother, who taught me shell names like "cat's paw" and "lady slipper" as a child. (All shells were collected on Sanibel Island, Florida, over the course of 4 trips.) Now I've made 10 different "compositions" --all 5" x 7" in shadow boxes that look like museum specimen cases. Most of the shells are "mini" versions of a larger shell; a few are their normal size. This collection was a gift to a friend who loves cats -- hence, the four specimens of "cat's paw".

This design is now available to buy as a pattern pdf, details on my blog www.bearpawandbearpaw.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/embroidery-p...

Many different stitches to try out. For a class I am teaching in the Autumn and blogged: bearpawandbearpaw.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/sampler-tree-emb...

A Rebecca Ringquist Sampler I finished recently. More photos on my blog.

My redwork embroidery sampler, work in progress. Notes detail all the stitches and materials used.

Its been over a year in the making, but I finally finished this project. I started the Rebecca Ringquist Dropcloth Sampler at an embroidery class at Fabric Nosherie last spring and finished it soon after. I finally made it into the pillow I'd been envisioning and finished it up over the weekend. I used shot cottons bought from Bon Bon Atilier; I'm a little sad that both shops I bought my supplies at have since closed.

This embroidery sampler is hanging in a restaurant in the village. Fanciful birds, some with multiple heads, decorate the huipiles of this village, the older ones often all in red. Newer ones are in multiple bright colors and are dazzling. The work here is outstanding, unlimited creativity, though only the oldest women still wear the huipil anymore. Young women wear it only for special occasions, if at all. These birds are turkeys.

  

Una muestra de bordado a mano con diseños tradicionales de guajolotes. El uso de un solo color (rojo) es muy tradicional para huipiles pero ahora, los hacen con muchos colores. Se bordó esta servilleta en tela comercial cuadrillé, pero para hacer un huipil lo tejen en telar de cintura. Las aves son guajolotes.

This tree sampler took 94 days to complete. I worked on it about 2-3 hours each day.

my christmas penny sampler top! (this one is going to continue to be a bear to photograph.) take a good look because this is going into handquilting now and may be in progress for awhile :)

City Sampler ....finally finished!! Blogged about at: cloudcoucoucrafts.wordpress.com Blocks from Tula Pink's City Sampler - 100 Modern Quilt Blocks

I've always kept this little sampler my grandma made me in my floss box. She taught me how to embroider when I was 6! I also keep a pair of doll boots in there for an unknown reason.

Mixing my color scraps for the 'main' fabric and printed whites for my background fabric, I created a completely unique look and layout for Tula Pink's Modern Sampler.

i took the action sampler on holiday to turkey. i took some photos. i then completely forgot about the exposed roll of film until i found it about three years later. the combination of the sampler's erratic nature and the old film made for some interesting results.
