Heart Sampler

This is my version of the Farm Girl Sampler Quilt from the Farm Girl Vintage by Lori Holt.

To date, this my most favorite quilt that I've made. I love looking at all the different fabrics that were used in this.

Details:

Started: May 2015

Finished: August 2016

Gifted to: Sherri Ann Meek

Fabrics: Various

Dimensions: Approximately 60" x 74" (after washing)

Pattern: Farm Girl Sampler Quilt from the book Farm Girl Vintage by Lori Holt, Pg. 134

Caught up on the 365 Challenge Quilt Sampler today.

I decided that I needed to splash some more color in, and chose aqua.

Our first stop though it was not to taste any wine - it was for their duck parade.

have been asked to make a cross stitch sampler on the subject of modern life for people on benefits and the history of welfare. the top half says "smash up the workhouse" - the title of a pamphlet by the great George Lansbury, MP, Privy Councillor, one time Mayor of Poplar and poor law guardian. the second sentiment is my own reaction to the idea of forcing people to do low paid jobs not of their choosing, This is not just unemployed people but sick and disabled people who are still medically unfit, but find that the government has moved the goalposts. I'll post a picture of the full sampler when it's finished.

Exclusive to the August Sampler: emoticon mini-patches by me: pillowhead.etsy.com and tiny envelopes by Lauren: stellaloella.etsy.com. Cute!

I started this back in 1998 and finished it yesterday! It is about 8" by 18" inches. Naturally dyed silk on linen, sampler #701 by Alyce Schroth.

Detail of Jane Bostocke sampler, 1598. Victoria & Albert Museum, London, England.

Baby design was adapted from the Christmas baby design by Joanne Sanderson (see Christmas Baby Pillow in this set) and the rest was personalized and adapted from various design sources. The finished sampler was approx. 8x10" (or 10x12", I can never remember which).

Designed by Lesa Steele. Best downloaded and viewed in Full Size (which is kind of big - sorry). I'm almost finished -there are only a few more bands to go. I decided to take a break (read chickened out) when I got to the hem stitching band, as I've never done those before! The beading is also being done at the end. I subbed the Kreinik with Rainbow Gallery PTB (Gold). Other fibers used: Silk N Colors Halloween Confetti; DMC Perle Ecru #8 + #12. Fabric is Cream Belfast Linen.

Perfect little gift pack! :)

Block 4. My center pinwheel point on the blue block didn't match up very well. I can live with it. :)
