The Paisley Sampler was designed to be dense and jam packed. It was inspired by Indian textiles, and in particular Rebecca Ringquist’s favorite deck of cards. She stitched up her example with tons of bright colors, but thinks the design would also look great in a more limited palette as found in bandanas. Includes one Paisley sampler printed in permanent ink on 100% cotton fabric, ready for you to hoop and stitch, printed basic instructions and stitch diagrams. You provide your own threads (Dropcloth Samplers uses a combination of size 8 perle cotton and/or embroidery floss), needles, and hoop. Finished, the Paisley sampler measures 10 in. square.

Please note: This item is not embroidered, but ready to be embroidered by YOU. For best results, back this fabric with a second piece of fabric (cotton or linen) before placing your fabric in the hoop to get the flattest, most even stitches. The pictures show one way to fill in the design, but you can choose whatever colors/threads you like. Use your own favorite stitches and threads to make this fun project your own!
