I am very excited to bring you the reproduction sampler of Agness Thomson 1819! A happy, colorful Scottish sampler!
Agness used some very traditional Scottish motifs in her sampler, such as the rabbits and trees along the bottom, the five-flower urn and peacock but also added some fun interests such as striped birds, and especially that zig-zag band through the middle.
Mostly all in cross stitch over two with some over one cross stitch used in her name and some of the small initials she placed throughout.
The reproduction sampler uses 17 colors of dmc thread and I stitched the model on 40 count Zweigart vintage country mocha linen. The stitch count is 140 x 217. The frame was ordered custom sized from The Rusty Roof on Etsy.

In conjunction with the release of Agness' sampler I have also created a limited number of floss drop sets that include 3 each of 6 designs from the reproduction sampler, 18 in all, along with a key and crystal charm on floss ring! Please contact Hobby House Needleworks for more information on these sweet floss drop sets.
