Memory together......grandmoother, mother and me, we make this laces between 1800-1900. Myself 1972.
A knitting sampler, knitted last night and about to be frogged. I used the yarn that I got from the Biggan Dups class on Continental Knitting at the iKnit Weekender. It is DK weight 100% Australian Merino Wool and a delight to knit with. All of this stitch patterns were worked from "400 Knitting Stitches: Great Stitch Patterns" (Murdoch Books) - except the "heel stitch" which I found on www.thedietdiary.com/blog/lucia/525 - and the stitch names and page numbers can be seen in the 'notes' as you hover over the photos on their flickr page.
From an Annelle Ferguson kit

Final blocks for PS I quilt pinwheel sampler quilt along. Whew! done with the blocks!
These are SeeSaw from Quilter's Cache.
Finished! I had a hard time taking nice photos of it, but these will do. Maybe when the weather finally dries out, I'll try a few outside.
The cursive letter "A a" is hand embroidered and rests on machine stitched notebook paper-inspired lines. All this cuteness is done on a beautiful natural cotton and the other side is fabric I designed and had printed by Spoonflower on a wonderful linen/cotton blend. The lining is red polka dot cotton and the zipper is black. This pouch also features a brown ribbon handle.
These 3 bold fabrics work great together!
This zipper pouch is my own pattern, wider at the base makes it roomier inside. It measures 6" wide and 5" high.
Modern sampler adapted from earlier model types. This is 90% from a yardsale kit with no coversheet or copyright information.

#13) Delicate or work-hardened, shoot close up to capture the character of a hand or hands.
and #15) Try to convey a particular smell (paint, new-mown hay, fresh bread) to your viewers.
and #11) Are your horizons perfectly level? Give one a radical tilt for a different look.
my oldest friend is here for a visit and brought me a sampler box of chocolates; isn't she a sweetie?? :):)
