Permin Sampler 1749 Dug Out, Dusted Off

I dug out Permin 1749 and dusted her off and put her on my mantle.  I had put her under my bed because I got tired of looking at it.  Now, I am in love with this sampler again.  I stitched this on 36 count linen with my all time favorite Gloriana Silk.  The sampler, linen and silk were wonderful.  This was a joy to stitch.  Here it is in blue.














here is the frame....which is perfect for this sampler.

 I am continuing on Jane Baxter..  Enjoy!!

Isn't funny how we get sick of looking at the same samplers lol. I replace my older pieces with the new samplers and it brings a new look to the room. This is a nice one as well, but unfortunately isn't in my stash. - Sandra.

I’ve seen in internet that you have the chart 1749 of Permin.

Could you send me this chart? Is it possible?or can you put the chart in your blog?

I love it but de kit is very expensive in the shop…

Thank you.
