This sampler was inspired after seeing Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland," believe it or not. I wanted a kind of fantastical garden feel. Black flowers and purple watermelon. It's fun to stitch, too.
 
The model is stitched on 40 count Vintage Light Exemplar by Lakeside Linens in Sampler Threads (a DMC conversion is provided.) Stitch count is 133 by 132.
