Jane Fiddes 1835 ~ Reproduction Sampler

Jane’s sampler, a particularly beautiful one, is filled to bursting with motifs that vibrate with colour. The more you study the sampler the more you will see.

Jane’s stunning has been reproduced using Weeks Dyeworks 46ct Zweigart-based linen in straw with one strand of Au Ver à Soie silk from their d’Alger range. We have provided conversions for Au Ver à Soie 100.3 range together with DMC.  Weeks Dyeworks  Zweigart-based linen in cocoa would also work well for the sampler.
