The Flowering Heart Wedding Sampler by June Grigg appeared in the January/February 1984 issue of Just CrossStitch magazine. I’ve probably stitched it at least half a dozen times on various count fabric for wedding presents and once for a 50th anniversary gift. Unfortunately I did not take a picture of each of the finished pieces. This one was stitched for my niece. The one I am stitching now, I am going to try and keep track of exactly how long it takes to finish. I started last night (May 30th). Update: Sigh, my good intentions were for naught as I forgot to note when I finished the sampler.
I’m stitching this on 28 count white Monaco by Charles Craft over two threads.
The finished and framed sampler. Both of the samplers were framed with the scooped oak frame from Graphic Dimensions but matted a little differently.

I really like your page! It is very very professional! Thank you very much for posting for us! Have a awesome day!
This is a great wedding present for my bestfriend who loves to collect pieces like this. I say that the design is beautiful and she will surely love this!

The banner photo looks very nice! I want some cross stitched buildings and flowers like tulips…my sister was once very good with these, she doesn’t make one anymore though…she even put some cross stitched designs on sofa pillows…
Very unique. My mother in law will celebrate their silver anniversary and it will be a good idea if I will make a piece like this, she will like it.
I really like these samplers. These are beautiful. I want to make one of these pictures for my best cousine’s wedding. May I ask you to send me the pattern? thank you!
As far as I know this chart is no longer available unless you are able to find an old copy of the magazine.
