My First Post

Now a new start, this is an antique reproduction sampler called Hannah Richards by Brenda Keyes and it’s from issue 17 of Cross Stitch Gold. I’ve used called for threads and I tea dyed and then coffee splattered some white 28ct evenweave. Not much to show as it was a Sunday evening start. On Saturday night I started and finished Eat your Carrots, this is an old one from The Sampler Girl, I’m not too sure if it’s still available.
