How she will look when completed. 

Apron 

Skirt



The Mayflower Sampler Guild class I'm taking is this fabulous pincushion doll called

Betsy Ross - A Patriotic
Pincushion Doll
By Giulia Manfredini Cornali of Giulia Punti Antichi designs.
Finished the drawn thread work and cross stitching on the apron. Now to get the skirt done. Of all her pincushion dolls this is my favorite! @giuliapuntiantichi @mayflowersamplerguild #patrioticstitching #betsyrosspincushiondoll

Hands Across the Sea Maria Wales Newson sampler pt 1 and 2

Finished February part 2 of the Friends of Hands Across the Seas Samplers Facebook Group Stitch Along 2026 sampler Maria Wales Newson led by Judy Hall. The flowers and colours are so pretty. I've loved every moment stitching on this. Looking forward to getting March done and seeing it all start to take shape. Using au ver soie silks on 36 count tabby cat linen.
