A CROWN OF LIFE by 1897 Schoolgirl Samplers

$22.00Price

Design Size: 217 wide X 189 high

Fabric: 36ct. Mocha by Weeks Dye Works

Sampler Size: 12 1/4” W x 11” H

Instructions:  

The model was stitched with 2 strands of over-dyed floss, over 2 linen threads and 1 strand of over-dyed floss, over 1 linen thread. 

A single strand of Weeks Dye Works Schneckley was used, in straight stitch, to work the feathers / crown on top of each bird’s head.

*I use as much of my floss as I possibly can, so depending on your thread usage and stitching style, you may need an additional skein each of WDW Hibiscus, WDW Onyx and WDW Schneckley.
