Regina Haible - With Thy Needle and Thread - Cross Stitch Chart

Regina had a very special eye for a soft and feminine color palette. I couldn't resist the temptation of this small sampler, it's beautiful! With just DMC floss I was able to reproduce Regina's soft colors pretty closely. The bird motif was too pretty not to do a bit more with. Using the antique sampler as my inspiration, I designed a small coordinating pincushion that is also included in the pattern booklet. The stitcher can personalize the pincushion with their own initials, or a loved one to personalize the finish.

Stitch counts are 213 W x 220 H for the Sampler and 87 W x 93 H for the Birds in the Bough Pincushion.

Models were stitched on 40 count Antique Lace from Seraphim Fabrics and is stitched with threads from DMC.
