Elizabeth Savilles 1841 Sampler by Finger Work




Last night I started on Elizabeth Savilles 1841 Sampler by Finger Work. It is a dream to work on I am using Old Willow Sampler Threads and 32 count Antique White Linen. I am using the requested threads, but the fabric was in my stash. The threads are strong and the colors beautiful. The colors are a little more pinkier than the colors on the original above.

Donna, we are on the same wavelength. I just purchased this pattern and will be rotating it with Maria Short. I love the pinks and your fabric choice is a great one!
Looking forward to pictures of your progress!
