Harriot Hey 1809 - Reproduction Sampler Chart by Tabby Cat Linen

The 2024 Our Sampler Years Stitch-a-Long! (find this group on Facebook)

Michele from Tabbycat charted this reproduction sampler with an array of colors, 20 in all! She is truly a rainbow of fun! A big red house and a sweet couple surrounded by flowers, trees, peacock, birds, rooster and more! There is some Algerian eyelet stitch, cross stitch and over one cross stitch (for name and verse). The sampler will be divided into 12 stitch assignments so that you can stitch a little bit each month… but that is entirely up to you! It is all about the journey from beginning to end and whatever way youwish to approach your sampler is the best way!

Harriot Hey’s sampler is 237 stitches wide x 286 stitches high. The model was stitched on Vintage Sand Dune by Lakeside linen with Au Ver a Soie d’alger silk. A dmc conversion is provided.  Some other linens that would work would be Zweigart Antique Ivory in 28, 32, 36 counts, Zweigart Platinum in 40 count, Fox & Rabbit Flannel Flower

Tiger Lily Designs has done up a conversion from DMC to overdyed cotton floss:

831 = GAST Burlap

666 = GAST tomato
