COUNTED CROSS STITCH CHART BY BARBARA ANA DESIGNS
Look a little closer, this is not your usual antique sampler! With her inimitable style, Designer Barbara Ana takes us on a fun journey back in time, revisiting Halloween Quaker style in a joyous mix of past and present.
The selected fabric has a marbled effect for an antique feel (Days gone by linen from Silkweaver) but you could enjoy dyeing your own fabric with natural dyes (coffee, tea, onion peel...). The embroidery floss with delicate color variations is from the Valdani range but DMC subsitutions are also provided.
