Pasifika inspiration for zentanglers and henna artists :o)
I've loaded it here, on my personal account, as well as on our OodleArdle business account, because I can't put it in my own zentangle samplers gallery unless it's in a different Flickr account!
Close detail of fabric ready to add to my band sampler. The white fabric is scrap cotton added to the side so I can get it on a hoop. The tacking lines are edge of the sampler.
Details about this are on my blog

Whatever the Work to God's Glory do all,
nor forget when the needle you ply
like doucas to hem and to stitch for the poor,
to watch pray and learn well to die

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.
Am really enjoying making this quilt! Especially learning new techniques and picking fabrics! Of course one house is backwards, but I'm gonna go with that I did it on purpose!

Designer: The Drawn Thread. This is the scan (which didn't quite fit into the scanner, as you see!) without the beads. The photo I took (which came out HORRIBLY), does have the beads on it. Stitched with silks (Vikki Clayton conversion) on Lakeside Linen Amethyst (32-Count).
patch d'une cliente; le quilting améliore nettement le patch, fais vibrer le fond beige et met en valeur les blocs piécés; les plumes dans les bordures encadre bien le tout.

So here we are, the romantic landscape... uh... I mean the Kashmir sun-burnt landscape à la miriam : left hill is chain-stitched in orange to brown hues. There'll be some bright blue knot-stitched flowers on it later.
Sodele - hier der 2. Teil - darauf habe ich noch ein Stoff von der Serie Nightshade vergessen. Unten das sind die "Nest" Stoffe - sehr speziell, aber die Farben sind der Hammer.
I harvested my ‘Red Gold’ potatoes from the front garden a few weeks ago. It always amazes me when I dig potatoes, you plant one small potato and dig up a bucketful. The yields in my garden are slightly smaller than the ones we harvested from my mom’s garden, but I wasn’t disappointed.
My mom and I also harvested the 'Carola', 'All Red', 'All Blue', and 'Purple Viking' that we planted in her garden. We were quite impressed with the yields, I think the total weighed in around 40 pounds for these varieties. It was quite fun to harvest such a colorful variety of potatoes. I got this collection from potato sampler from Seed Savers in the spring.
