Daisychain Sampler "V"
June 27, 2012 LOL! V stands for VERY LONG TIME since I worked on this poor, neglected sampler!
It was a bit of an archeological dig to even find it buried under layers of Quilt Market sewing fabric & mending & ... stuff ... you know how it goes. ;)
ANYHOW, here's where I left off ... 3 months ago? Yikes!
I used the same brown as U.
And that long/short stitch again that I love so much. You just can't beat that texture!
The palest pink makes for a sweet little scallop trim.
And pale blue for the dots.
Reminds me of a nursery.
Which reminds me of my babies.
Which makes my ovaries ache.
Better move on to the next letter quick!

That might be my favorite letter so far. I was wondering when you would return to your sampler. Speaking of ovaries aching... did you see the adorable picture of Amy's new bundle at nanaCompany's blog? I think you follow her blog - right? Have a great day!
V like VERY pretty! Now you just have four more letters;-) Hildy
The pretty pink scallops make this letter! It's beautiful! :)
I just love this sampler . . . is this your own design? . . . will you be selling the instructions?
Awe I like 'V'. :)
V is for Vivienne you know! ;)
I love your V. I wish I loved to stitch the long/short stitch as much as I love to look at it. I also love the scallops. I am on X, skipped W cause it looks like WORK. I have posted my version of this on vjohnson1234 flickr embroider group if you would like to take a look at what you inspired.
I have learned many new stitches since I first saw you start. What great fun. You do amazing work. Thank you.
I love your colors and your stitching is beautiful.
I am working on the same sampler - I love it!
LOL you always make me laugh! :O) Love this embroidery! I have to try that stitch soon! The pink and blue are soooo sweet... and yes... looks like baby... love it!
I love this, I have a book that has wonderful stitches but I have never tried them. I think that you did a very wonderful job.
Your hands ere made fro this beautiful stitching! Those pink scallops just did me in!!! So lovely!
Love this letter, and the ones before.
I love your sampler and am starting on mine tomorrow. I have read through all of your letters for all your tips. I reduced mine to 85% and ordered the same Cosmo floss. I love how much smoother it is than the DMC I have always used. I traced my letters today and am ready for my 14 trip tomorrow. I hope mine turns out half as good as yours. Thank you for the inspiration!
very nice thank you so much
