Super Sampler caught Candace driving us home from eating cheeseburgers and grilled cheese sandwiches last Friday.
This is one of the projects I made in my weaving class. I fell in love with the floor loom and the process of weaving. A seed was planted. This is a twill sampler, far from perfect but really fun to make.

Here everybody says "Sampler" and everybody understands. But at the other university of Graz you get corrected. You have to say "Kolbenhubpipette". If you are the first time in the other university you don't have a clue what they are talking about.
Christmas sampler has all our favorite things about the holiday: Santa, reindeer, Christmas tree, gingerbread men, and home.
Stitched on 22ct. aida, the edges are fringed to make a frame. The picture is open (not framed), with a felt backing and starched to help with rigidity. Finished size is 6" wide by 4 3/8" tall.
I simplified the middle by cutting it into a single strip instead of three squares. Honestly, though, I'm not really happy with this one. The colors don't pop at all for me, and I'd really like some more 'oomph'. I'll probably end up re-piecing this one.

I stitched this sampler for my brother and sister in law for their anniversary and then did just the bottom part of it again for a gift for my parents. Hardanger isn't hard to do, but is more advanced that cross stitch. The basis of Hardanger lies in creating blocks of satin stitched areas. The fabric within the blocks can then be cut - yes, cut - and filled in with specialty stitching or just left open. This method of stitching comes from Norway. It looks a lot like lace and is achieved by using satin stitch to form blocks or squares.

They had tons of beers at Twisted Snout Brewing in Toledo so it was hard to choose just 6. The red was my favorite. The bbq here is supposed to be great but we had other dinner plans in store so unfortunately we didn't try any food.
I loved a picture of samples of knitting patterns in the Rae Compton’s Complete Book of Traditional Knitting. So I used up some mohair and a few scraps of other soft wool and made this hairy jumper.
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.
Sampler knit during Estonian Lace class at the Nordic Knitting Conference. Patterns are Peacock Tail, Double Lily of the Valley, and Twig (from bottom to top).
Cross-stitching on Aida cloth, various sizes, 2011.
Cross-stitched quotes from various romance novels in the style of traditional and modern samplers.
