This is the pattern book. It says that the sampler is in the collection of the Reading Public Museum. Guess the next time hubby and I are in PA we will have to swing by and take a look at the REAL Sara!
This is a closer shot of the sampler. I am trying to hurry through the letters so that I can get started on the beautiful motifs!
This is what I have stitched so far...
Here are the threads...the picture does not do them justice. I chose 28 ct. Zweigart Antique Cashel Country Grain fabric and sampler threads Dark Chocolate (Gentle Art), Gingersnap and Toffee (Simply Shaker.) These colors remind me of a really good latte with an extra shot of espresso! YUM!
Well, I am off to get supper ready and stitch a little bit more. I hope all is well with everyone and you have been able to find some time to stitch today! Till next time...Happy Stitching!

Super nice start and love the colors. The colors do sound yummy!!
I love your progress on the Schultz sampler!! ALL of the selections you received are awesome! Why do I love samplers so???
Thanks so very much for your kind words you posted on my blog! I enjoyed making up the Valentine Tree and hope to do more seasonal smalls throughout the year...along with my samplers of course!! Faye
I know that the sampler threads are really gorgeous, it is impossible to get a photo that does them justice. Your sampler is going to be wonderful when it's done! Enjoy working on it!
