From the designer:

This design is a pattern I created for the Japanese magazine Stitch Idees. I took inspiration from an early 19th-century sampler I bought years ago. The sampler has beautiful faded blue-green shades and some ochre. On it were many floral motifs, but also some birds and a stag in a garden. The birds at the top of this sampler are based on those found on the sampler.

This chart measures 201 stitches wide and 201 stitches tall for a total of 19,917 stitches.

Roxy Floss Co Colours Included: Statuesque, Great Lakes, Ruddy Duck, Flint

Looking for fabric? This would look stunning on

When stitching on 28ct linen, you will need a half yard.
When stitching on 32ct linen, you can fit this on a wide quarter as long as you are okay with a 2.5 inch border on the short side of the fabric.
When stitching on 36ct or 40ct, a wide quarter is plenty to stitch this chart.

Overdyed by hand in small batches, this floss is awesome! Please ensure you are ordering the amount needed as duplicating dye lots is a tricky business and the next batch of this colourway may vary slightly.

Test a small sample if you intend to wash, esp darker colours. It has been rinsed and set carefully and should be colourfast - but always better safe than sorry.

- Colour of floss may vary slightly from my monitor to yours  

- Carded and packed for you by hand in a smoke free, pet friendly workshop.
