woodland sampler
here is the latest pattern from penelope waits: the woodland sampler!
i wanted to create a sampler that wasn’t quite so pink as my other one, and that incorporated animals as well as botanicals. this is the result!
it’s not a traditional sampler, in that it doesn’t have a place for the date and the stitcher’s name. i thought it might be nice to keep this one as simple as possible, what with all the busy little creatures scampering across it!
as ever, you can purchase the pattern from my etsy shop if you have taken a fancy to it.
love and squirrels,
essie xoxox

Stunning as usual- you are so talented at this! I remember you saying about two years ago (maybe more) that you wanted to sell ’sticheries’ patterns, well look at you - you’re doing it!

This sampler is really pretty, especially the birds at the top.
I’ve just taken up cross stitching again and I came by here via Frankie. I really like your blog!

Hello Penelope,
I am one of your admirers. I love the designs and the way you use your colours is very clever. I have fallen in love with the cranes and trees part of this design, although I like all of it. Are you still selling this pattern? I am interested in buying it.
