Antique Sampler reproduction for cross stitch. PDF CHART ONLY.

Marie Ginneston’s sampler reproduced by Sovereign Samplers has a stitch count of 323w x 323h. The approximate finished measurements are 51.5 x 51.5cms (20 1/4 “x 20 ¼ “) on 32 count linen.

The original sampler and model were worked on 32 count linen. Our model has been worked on Weeks Dye Works Linen, colour ‘Linen’ using DMC stranded cotton. The sampler has been worked in cross stitch, using one strand of thread over two threads of linen.

Thread quantities: Our model was worked in DMC stranded cotton and 4 skeins of colour #309 were used. The original was worked in a darker red close to DMC colour #498. A suggestion for a variegated red would be Gentle Arts Sampler threads in “Schoolhouse Red”, or in silk consider Au Ver a Soie numbers 945, 2935 or 2936, or for a softly variegated silk Gloriana “Schoolhouse Red”.

What will I receive? You will receive via email a clear colour cross stitch chart, a colour image of the finished design and a colour image of the antique original. This listing is for a digital download only – PDF Chart, there is a separate listing if you would prefer a printed chart posted to you.
