Sarah’s little sampler is a joyful depiction of flora & fauna. She
used a combination of cotton, fine wool, and silk threads. Her design
is worked almost entirely in cross stitch with the exception of the
satin stitches she used in the floral border. The satin stitches can
easily be worked in cross stitch if you prefer.
Stitch count is 140 W x 159 H.
