The Betsy Ross - A Patriotic Pincushion Doll By Giulia Manfredini Cornali

Betsy Ross doll is finished. Now to get the flag etc stitched and put together as shown in the 3rd picture. I loved taking this workshop class with the The Mayflower Sampler Guild called The Betsy Ross - A Patriotic Pincushion Doll
By Giulia Manfredini Cornali of Giulia Punti Antichi designs. Who is an amazing designer and instructor.

Friends of Hands Across the Seas Samplers Stitch Along 2026 Maria Wales Newson

Friends of Hands Across the Seas Samplers
Stitch Along 2026 Maria Wales Newson by @handsacrosstheseasamplers I'm using the @tabbycathanddyedlinen and the @auverasoie_officiel silks. I'll do my border first and since I stitch right to left I'll start bottom right with section 12. Finished January part 1 of the Friends of Hands Across the Seas Samplers Facebook Group Stitch Along 2026 sampler Maria Wales Newson led by Judy Hall. I will not under estimate part 2 and procrastinate like I did this part. 😋I almost didn't make the deadline on this one. A very pretty sampler. I love doing the border which is usually the part I dread. The flowers and colours are so pretty. @handsacrosstheseasamplers
