A Delaware Inspiration from Heart's Ease Examplar Workes ~ 1 only!

    Theresa tells us "I was asked if I'd be interested in designing a sampler based on the style of antique samplers from Delaware.  After a little research, I settled on a beautiful footprint to follow for my model.  Since it is a Delaware Sampler, I decided to incorporate symbols from the "First State" into the design:  The Blue Hen, our State bird (as well as the Cardinal, as it was the Blue Hen's runner up); Holly, our State Tree; Sweet Goldenrod, our State herb; Peach Blossom, our State flower; Ladybug, our State insect; Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly, our State butterfly; Grey Fox, our State Wildlife; and Strawberry, our State fruit."

    Stitch count is 231 W x 309 H.

    Model was stitched on 40 count Pearled Barley from Lakeside Linens and stitched with Belle Soie Silks. DMC Conversion is included with chart.
