Sinds 1990 verwerk ik mijn proeven, restanten, schetsen, ideeen in Samplers van 1 x 1 m. Als een persoonlijk archief, niet te koop.
Vandaag mijn 20e Sampler samengesteld, paardenhaar, perkament, zeemleer, egelpennen...
Just before I threw away the broken Oktomat and Action Sampler. They're not built to last; they're toys, after all. August 2008
Sampler to use in an upcoming 3x5" Bottoms-Up swap I'm hosting over at lineweaving.com/forums . Come join the fun!
I love this pattern. This one took me 3 weeks to finish and covers a king size bed. I used 'I love this yarn' to make it.
3 different variegated colors, linen and beige.
Join along if you want to learn new stuff! Year of Samplers Sampler #1, in progress - on the blog now.
This is a sampler worked by Ann Williams in October 1805.
SH.1963.98
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.
This is a sampler worked by Ann Ingham, aged 9 in 1839.
This is a particularly finely worked example and the text reads 'Love not sleep lest thou come to poverty'. The quote comes from the Bible - Proverbs, 20:13. The quote continues, 'open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread'. It is advice to get adequate sleep, but not to desire sleep beyond all other things.

FINALLY making progress!! i put my scrappy sampler top together tonight (sorry about the light, i just finished at 2 a.m.--i couldn't stop!). i am LOVING it. it is about 65x65 inches. i am pondering adding a scrappy border...but since the rest of my stuff is in storage, there will be no border or basting until the end of july.
now i just need to figure out sashing for my mendocino pinwheel sampler and then i will be uber productive!!
I thought I finally finished my 3x6 Sampler Quilt top. But after looking at it for a while, it still looks too narrow to fit on a twin bed. So I've decided to add one more row of blocks to make it wider.
44x54 inches
flannel backed
finally used some sampler blocks I made many years ago. (2.5 years ago. not as bad as I thought.)
Another nine blocks from my Patchsmith Sampler Blocks book (PDF Format). There's even a sew-along with hints and tips on all fifty 6" blocks. Find out more at The Patchsmith's blog.
Finished and folded.
Made with several colors of Patons Classic Wool from my stash. Love the end result!
These are blocks from the 3 x 6 and 4 x 5 bees. I started collecting these over a year ago. My colors were black and white with a splash of bright. I love how it came together. Tag your block if you recognize it! blogged
My attempt at creating perspective with blackwork. The Beginning Drawing approach using blocks and spheres. The sphere looks better in the larger size.
