The Common Thread 2

9.0"  x  8.3"   on 16/32 count fabric

A glorious sampler of meaningful and colorful motifs. This is a sampler of samplers – each section was taken from a different sampler that inspired Jeannette as she toured North America and shared her love for samplers with other stitchers. Every section of the pattern is marked with the sampler it came from, and why.

Description

The Common Thread 2 from Jeannette Douglas Designs.

Jeannette says,

Our shared passion of  threads, linen, scissors makes for a richer life with our love of stitching. I continue to be amazed at how connected I feel upon meeting with other stitchers for the first time. The bond of stitching is a love that we carry with us.

This is the flipped version of The Common Thread released in 2014 it has all new stitches and colours.  A section of Ukrainian Whitework, a section of Bargello, and other specialty stitches, this piece will challenge your stitching skills.

An embellishment package includes all the silk threads and all the buttons and charms needed to complete the piece.

This design is stitched in luxurious silk. Many “specialty” stitches are used – there are diagrams and written instructions for all of them, making this design approachable – if you have patience (and Google), your initial skill level with specialty stitches will improve with each section!
