Mini Sampler Book - Cross Stitch Pattern by Erica Michaels

This is a sequence small mini sampler panels inspired by German schoolgirl samplers and some of the teeny antique pattern books in my collection. A monochromatic color palette using two shades of the same color allows you to choose your favorite fabric/floss combination. The primary model is stitched in greens, but we're also featuring an option in red - click through the photo gallery below.

Finishing is by Lois of Lady Dot Creates and features an accordion style similar to those old pattern booklets. It's perhaps a more complex and fussy finishing option than others, but really sets these off - and is a great option for any other collection of smalls you might have in your UFO piles. Otherwise, stitch them as a long sewing roll, or a set of pin pillows - lots of choices!
