I was honoured to be published again in the Stampers´Sampler, I am soooooooo happy :)

Starting on my first sampler in my sampler-a-month year. Blogged.

Un sampler entièrement piécé à la main, envoyé par une de mes clientes. C'est un vrai patch traditionnel. Vu de dos: j'ai pratiquement rempli tout le fond avec du Mc Tavishing; cette technique convient particulièrement bien aux appliqués et aux traditionnels.

Interlacing stitches. Spun rayon thread on 36-count linen.

I am compulsively stitching on to my paper sampler.

I have added mainly waxed paper to a handmade paper and tissue paper background, and then altered the surface by using wire, hand and machine embroidery.

Mixed media - work in progress

Come grab yourself a template and stitch with me! On the blog.

There are not that many people in the Netherlands who are doing needlepoint at the moment, so I decided to teach it to myself. I made this sampler on plastic canvas to practise a couple of stitches. It is stitched with a double cotton thread.

Here is a wood inlay “Quilt Sampler” that will beatify any sewing room wall or any wall for that matter. It is made from 400 diamonds and triangles cut from seven different kinds of wood. It is finished in all their natural colors, no stains or dyes. It measures 16” x 16” square.

 

The wood is listed on the back from the center out. The center wood is “Purpleheart” from Central or South America, “Wenge” from West Africa, “Satinwood” from Brazil, (Satinwood is the most beautiful yellow color with a satin look.), “Lacewood” from Australia, (Lacewood has a pretty copper color with rays in the grain.), “Imbuia” from Brazil, and “Hackberry” and “Walnut from Missouri”.

 

Gift for my mother in it's planning stage. Lots of wrong, a few right.

Some process shots of my HST sampler quilt. Made a a prize for the winner of a fundraiser auction for my friend's doula co-op.

*Finally* finished! Blogged hereabouts.

For the Lomographians that I so detest, here is a Action Sampler type of camera that takes 4 pictures in one 24 x 36 frame at differed exposure times. Can be creative, but not for the prices and all the hype of the Lomographic mania

Sample of what can be done with the tube beads and findings.

This quilt is made with blocks from the Quilt Block Exchange. I quilted this as a piece to bring to quilt shops for longarm quiltling referrals.

¿Verdad que quedó simpático? Carmen le puso varios motivos infantiles porque es para un niño y el resultado es así de alegre.

More reverse applique and some regular appliqué added.

This is a sampler worked by Sophia Maria Lomas from Nuneaton in 1868.

 

The text reads

I have found the joys of Heaven,

I am one of the angel band,

To my head a crown of gold,

Is given and a harp is in my hand,

I have learned the song they sing,

Whom Jesus hath set free,

And the glorious walls of Heaven,

Still ring with my new born melody

 

These are two verses from a hymn about The Believer in Glory.

Samplers were first made in the 1400s or 1500s as a way of remembering different types of stitches or patterns. Over time they evolved into pieces of work made by young girls, proving their knowledge and patience.

 

The Herbert has over 60 samplers in its collection. With volunteers from NADFAS we have recently completed a project to improve their storage and to make them more accessible. You can see some of the samplers on display at the Herbert in the History Gallery, Connected and in What's in Store.

This is a sampler worked by S Gilron in 1808 in silk on a cotton or linen background.

Taken for Our Daily Challenge: ART AND/OR CRAFT, the topic for Tuesday, October 9

 

Made for the Western Washington Fair Home Arts / Creative Stitchery / Counted Thread exhibition (note shameless pandering to the Fair bottom centre), this picture has squares for each of Washington State's 39 counties, plus a few extra to make them come out even.

 

I stole the idea from a commercial pattern that featured a square for each of the United States, and then designed my own pictures for each of our counties.

 

Since I was standing in the accountancy line when design talent was being given out, it's probably wise to point out that the two things that look like off-colour grain silos next to the cherries in Yakima County are asparagus stalks. Thurston County is home to Olympia, our state capital. (The blue sheep in the Fair square are cars on the old wooden roller coaster, since demolished / disintegrated).

Ho creato per oggi un romantico e delicato Sampler welcome, da crearne un originale pinkeep oppuer un elegantissimo banner.

This sampler quilt was started at a quilting course in 1980. I'd made most of the blocks when we had to pack up the house and move countries. The pieces had been packed away ever since. With my interest in quilting recently reinvigorated, I decided to finally look at it again and finished it in February 2009. Better twenty-nine years late than never!
