Welcome!
Welcome to the Mary Wigham USA Stitch-Along Blog. I hope everyone enjoys working on their own Mary while seeing everyone else's progress! It's inspirational to see all the different color combinations being stitched! If there are any questions, please contact Valerie, Group Moderator, via email at fcdweller@yahoo.com
Materials List
To be as all inclusive as possible we are suggesting 32 count Permin Lambswool stitched over 2 threads and you will need 24" x 24" or 60cm x 60 cm of linen. (The design area will be approximately 20" x 20" - 50cm x 50cm.) If you are able to stitch smaller, then please do. Mary's sampler is approximately 13" by 12.5" - 33cm x 31.5cm. The stitch count is approximately 300 stitches by 290.
Floss colors:

Beth,I think you are right. I used a magnifying glass and the crown is slightly off center. Sad part is that I pulled mine out and have it almost all restitched. But I like it anyway.

It is SO helpful to have a nice large, clear image of the original at hand. Many thanks for posting this!
ReplyDeleteI keep my engagement calendar close at hand while I am stitching and like to do a true reproduction so I did it off kilter and love the way it looks! I think it humanizes the girls who made mistakes just like us!!
