Vogart colonial sampler stamped on pure linen. Listed in S.S. Kresge Co. advertising pamphlet promoting its Vogart Needlecraft Novelties line for the spring and summer of 1935. States that Vogart NY is a N.R.A [National Recovery Act] member No. 31-29. Instructions suggest the use of six strand cotton floss for embroidering the crosstitch pattern.

Checking out the current mix of colors and patterns. Still quite a few squares to make, if it's going to be a comfortable king size.
Sampler Border. Needs washed and framed. Teb years old :)
These are really samples of borders. Instead of using the borders for parts of other cross stitch, I stitched the whole page! There are three pages of this book I did.
I am a sucker for samplers alpha or borders or anything sample like. I also like shadow cross stitch.
This has been framed for five months...here is a picture of the sampler framed. I think the matting and frame was perfect for it. It is my first attempt at designing an embroidered sampler.
One of my collection of samplers.
This one is modern but based on traditional designs. It is dated 2000. I found it on Kettering market in 2009.
I missed my Busia's cooking so much, I couldn't decide from one thing to the next what to get. So in the end I settled for a bit of everything I like :) Bigos (hunter's stew), Golobki (stuffed cabbage), Placki (a potato pancake), Sausage with Kapusta (sauerkraut), and three Pierogi (one with meat paste filling, one with potato and cheese, one with mushroom and sauerkraut).

Another favorite thing - a goofy cross stitch sampler I did after I moved in and found myself looking at a random picture I'd tossed on the wall during the move and wondering what would go better.
I figured I could come up with something less likely to put people off their dinner than "The Temptation of St. Anthony" by Salvador Dali. I decided to do a cross stitch sampler, because my parents have a (perfectly normal) cross stitch sampler done by Grandma Florence who still remembered where every single error was 75 years later.. (There are so many in mine, I can't keep track.)
(I need to retake this picture so there's no glare and it enlarges cleaner and the winerack isn't obscuring the pumpkin.)
My first pull for the Penny Sampler. I've already removed some of the prints and ordered a few more that hopefully will work!
More thoughts on my inspiration and process here.
Sampler. Color. Various Hingham buildings and motifs including the harbor. Decorative border. Letters and numbers at the top. The following verse is incorporated into the pattern, which was developed and sold by the Hingham Historical Society in the early 1970s:
"Hingham for beauty
Cohasset for pride
If it wasn't for herring
Weymouth had died!"
Gift of Alexander Macmillan.
In the collection of the Hingham Historical Society [2018.30.1].

It's no good, I'm still obsessed with sewing bits of shell onto things. This piece is about 6" square and will, I think, look very nice in one of those white box frames. The layout is a bit more formal than my previous pieces, which I'm quite pleased with.
