Description

"Birds of a Feather Stitch Together..." Whenever we sit down to stitch with others we seem to find instant friendships. As stitchers, we regularly flock together at various retreats, classes, or at each other’s homes, and many of us have found such wonderful deep friendships through this delightful pastime. I designed this antique-style sampler as an expression of my gratitude for all the friends with whom I’ve stitched, in appreciation of the great times and shared meals and laughter. When you stitch this sampler and give it to one of your stitching sisters or hang it in your home, you’ve become my stitching friend too! The colours of this sampler are based on some marvelous overdyed silk threads. I have also designed a matching Biscornu which we’ve finished with special buttons! Stitch this meaningful and lovely “Birds of a Feather” Sampler, personalize it and share with your special stitching friends as a remembrance of your fun times together! -Thea
