these are some of the mini clutches we made for the special mtv style lounge event sampler. they are about half the size of the normal clutches.
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...
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

This is a sampler worked by Ann Williams in October 1805.

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.

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.
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.

flannel backed
finally used some sampler blocks I made many years ago. (2.5 years ago. not as bad as I thought.)

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.
