New!! TGA Redwork Sampler!

Something NEW and something RED!  

I am pleased to present my new release!  The TGA Redwork Sampler!  


Featuring two-tone red alphabets, along with fun florals, baskets and a grey kitty cat!


From the research I have done I would guesstimate this sampler is from the late 1880s to 1890s and has been reproduced from an antique in my collection.  I have named it the TGA Redwork Sampler because the stitcher only included their initials, TGA, and not their name.  So it is a mystery sampler of sorts but I do believe it is Italian or Italian-American based on the motifs used.  

The stitch count is 302 wide x 118 high.  I have stitched the model using 40 count R and R Reproductions linen in Espresso using all Gentle Art Sampler threads.  A conversion to DMC is also provided although may give a different result.  

Gentle Art:  Bluebell / Cherry Wine (2) / Cottage Blue / Deep Sea / Grasshopper / Highland Heather / Midnight / Moonlit Path / Pomegranate / Punchberry / Schoolhouse Red (4) / Sunflower / Willow

OR DMC:  928 / 815 (2) / 926 / 924 / 370 / 3727 / 930 / 453 / 347 / 211 / 816 (4) / 742 / 744

Also included is an additional alphabet in the font used for the TGA so you can use to personalize if you wish!

The chart is available from your favorite shop which is done in a full-color chart OR pdf is also available with both color and b&w charts in my etsy shop here!





Thank you for looking!  

Happy Stitches Always. xxxxx

Very nice! I don't believe I've ever seen that letter design in the fourth alphabet. But I don't get out much.
