Summary of Cross Stitch Antique Style Samplers

-Each project chapter focuses on a historic sampler style

-Provides ideas for personalizing the sampler designs With this unique guide, crafters will discover how to draw upon historically authentic samplers to create embroidered heirlooms of their own. Each of the more than thirty unique designs is based on the author's own historical sampler collection and is inspired by a popular sampler style from darning, alphabet, and map samplers, to Victorian sayings, band, and spot motif samplers.

Many of the classic designs are complemented by additional counted thread stitches, including drawn and pulled thread techniques, to encourage readers to extend their stitching repertoires. Motifs in each project can also be used for a range of small, quick-to-stitch project for added creative inspiration.
