Come stitch with me! Sampler #2 of my Year of Samplers will be a full stitchalong, so come by and join me! Blogged here.

The pistil stitch marks Week 37 of the TAST challenge and is simply a french knot with a tail and is easy peasy to do. :)

I have only just begun to work on my sampler. I couldn't wait to do the spiderwebs so that is where I started.

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...

Button samplers with clip to be included in a goody bag in a facebook '250th fan' giveaway.

So far... ; )

 

I still have some spaces I need to fill, but over all, I'm pretty happy with my first attempt!

 

I think, next time, I will work with something a bit smaller... lol!

Just before I threw away the broken Oktomat and Action Sampler. They're not built to last; they're toys, after all. August 2008

I finally finished! I added extra blocks to make it bigger. I am really pleased with it.

Sampler to use in an upcoming 3x5" Bottoms-Up swap I'm hosting over at lineweaving.com/forums . Come join the fun!

Creating Historic Samplers

Join along if you want to learn new stuff! Year of Samplers Sampler #1, in progress - on the blog now.

Starting on my first sampler in my sampler-a-month year. Blogged.

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.

Willis Toys Ltd,

Elsenham CM22 6EF

"Treasure Trove" WT 520

1,000 pieces, used and complete

approx. 69cm x 49cm

approx. 27in x 19in

2022 piece count: 1,000

puzzle no: 1

 

From the box:

"English Sampler worked by Susanna Gellet in 1800 on woollen canvas with coloured silks. Reproduced from the outstanding collection of Samplers in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge."

 

Our first puzzle of 2022 is from a manufacturer/distributor we'd not heard of before: Willis Toys. A quick search reveals they are still in existence, but this particular jigsaw is some years old and no trace of it remains online as far as I can tell. Thinner pieces - although they fit together well enough - all with regular shapes: 2 knobs, 2 holes, so not as easy as it first appeared.

  

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!!
