Sampler Stories Huswif

A one-day virtual class taught by Cissy Smith of Gentle Pursuit Designs

Saturday October 05, 2024, at 10:00 PDT

Location: Virtual via Zoom
Class time: Begins (tentatively) at !0:00 AM (Pacific time). The class will last approximately 3 hours with a break for lunch
Deadline to sign up: June 30, 2024 NO LATE REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED

Class Description:

Cissy's trifold Huswif is 8 inches wide and 4 inches high and is self-lined. Each kit includes: linen, 2 Gloriana Silks, 11 Needlepoint Silk Inc. Silks, AVAS Gold Accentuate, a spool of AVAS 100-03, and a 24-inch silk ribbon.

She borrowed motifs from her Scottish samplers for one side and her English samplers for the other side of the Huswif. The primary samplers that she took the motifs from were made by Christian Mitchel of Scotland and Margaret Hughes of England, and she will share her research on the samplers and the girls during the class.

Stitches include: Alternating Double Backstitch, Back Stitch, Cross Stitch Over Two and about 25 stitches of Cross Stitch Over One, Herringbone, Long Arm Cross Stitch, Nun’s Stitch, Queen Stitch, Roman Stitch, Satin Stitch, and Smyrna Cross as well as a fancy but small Scottish alphabet from my Jane Catherine Helen Bowlby 1832 sampler.
