Samplers are one of the most enjoyable forms of cross stitch embroidery, not least because they are simple to work. They have a long-established history both as a way of recording needlework patterns and as lasting celebrations of family events.
Angela Wainwright's collection of stunning new cross stitch pieces combines this tradition with the rich legacy of medieval decorative art. From the vibrant colours and highly graphic designs of stained glass windows, the charming flowers and creatures depicted in tapestries and manuscripts and the elaborate shields and emblems on heraldic coats-of-arms, she has created a variety of samplers and smaller pieces to commemorate special occasions and to decorate the home.
The source material for each design is shown in full colour, as is the charted pattern. Complete shade details for the threads and clear making-up instructions are also given. These new designs make fascinating period pieces, which can easily be worked by those who are new to cross stitch as well as those who are already firm devotees.
