“Come gentle Spring... Snowdrops bow to thee..” (John Greenleaf Whittier 1807 - 1872) This lovely new spring design has all the elements of an antique sampler. A charming yellow farmhouse sits atop a hill of sampler bands. The specialty stitches are interspersed with spring motifs; a robin, a bunny in a snowdrop patch, a nest full of blue eggs, and a sprinkling of alphabet letters. Stitched with gentle overdyed cottons and many different silks in soft shades. - Cathy Jean Design area: 118h x 52w (8.4”high x 3.7” wide) Model: 28ct Cashel Linen, 'Antique Almond' Cut fabric: 14.5"h X 10"w for framing Suggested Materials Gloriana #087 -“Forest” (greens med) Gloriana #072A -“Sierra Haze lt” (blues, tans) Gloriana #117 - “Elizabethan Green” (greens dk) Caron Waterlilies #139- “Kelp” (green / brown) Gentle Art Sampler Threads -“Sable” (browns med) Gentle Art Sampler Threads-“Grecian Gold” (golds) Gentle Art Sampler Threads-“Copper” (coppers) Gentle Art Sampler Threads-“Staw Bonnet”
