It is such a shame that Alice did not record more personal information on her charming sampler. The scene that she stitched when she was 12 years old depicts the mutual love between children and dogs; it’s timeless! The surrounding autumnal border is delightful and catches the eye.

Thread Legend

The model was stitched with Soie 100.3 from Au Ver à Soie using a gorgeous palette of twenty-three colours. We have provided conversions for Soie d’Alger and DMC below. Only one spool or skein of each colour is required when stitching on 14ct Aida through to 56ct linen.
