I've got mine and I can't wait to start, but it will be hard since I 'm a one project at a time girl. "Grace Mason" may have to take a nap! tjbdesigns http://stitchingandbeading.blogspot.com
I downloaded part one earlier and printed it out. I've got some obligation stitching I really need to finish up, but another part of me is just itching to at least put in a few stitches on Mary just to get her started. LOL
HI ~ I am interested in joining the Mary Wigham SAL. My email address is ~ reddrooster@gmail.com. I have looked at many samplers and I like all the different motifs offered. I think if I had done one as a young child I would have liked one just like this. Is this all you need? If not just let me know. The pictures I have seen already are quite stunning all so different. Thanks and God Bless ~ Lenna
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: Mary Wigham SAL - DMC Threads Here are the DMC thread shades for Mary Wigham but feel free to convert them to whatever threads you prefer. You will need 1 skein each of: 225, 352, 356, 407, 433, 435, 519, 725, 739, 746, 927, 930, 934, 963, 966, 3052,3768, 3822, 3855, 3857, ecru, white, black. There is no 560.
Obviously, we are all open to chose what ever fabric color/count we would like to use. Same goes for flosses. It was just suggested by a member that this be posted for easy access for everyone. Also, the main blog page is: http://needleprint.blogspot.com/ On this page, you will see the flags of different countries on the right hand side. Click on them & you will be taken to the Head Girls blog where you can see other countries work!
