And They Sinned by Examplar Dames upclose

Several people have asked to see closeups of my sampler so here they are.

The framing was done by Fancimats in Littleton, CO

And They Sinned Framed

Well finally after almost 1 1/2 yrs I finally got this done. The frame matched beautifully. Cindy at Fancimats and my husband had a really good eye to matching the frame to the design. If you are ever in Denver make sure you stop by there. It''s a great little shop with a wonderful choice of stitching supplies.

Sampler Lakeside

Well I finished the lake but wasn't thrilled with my outcome. I suggest that you use the same method as the grass when doing the lake. Diagonally - maybe it would give it a little less blocky look but I wasn't about to rip it out and try to find out. It looks nice tho'. hopefully this weekend I will get most of that part finished.

And They Sinned pic update

Can't believe I am getting close to the end!~ Two years in the making.

And They Sinned update

Well yesterday was a bummer. I had to rip out everything I did the night before because trying to watch TV and stitch...........I started the tiny tree under the wrong leaf so that made everything else offside... well what's another day in a 2 year project eh? Will have to get an updated pic up also.

And They Sinned Sampler errors

Ok I found 2 more- Page 2 the clusters below the peacock on the right-3rd one in has one stitch missing.

On Page 3 the star on the right-below the fence-is up one stitch from the rest of the row.

And They Sinned Sampler (in Progress)

I started this last year but it is easy to set aside as other samplers beckon me. But my New Years Resolution is to see this hanging on my wall by the end of the year.
