Love and Joy by Heartstring Samplery

January 5, 2022 By patgeary

I first saw Love and Joy by Heartstring Samplery on Brenda and the Serial Starter flosstube and knew I HAD to stitch it. The chart is ONLY AVAILABLE on the Heartstring Samplery website and ONLY as a pdf file.

I chose a piece of 16ct Natural aida I had in my stash and the called for floss Classic Colorworks: Tennessee Red Clay. My two skeins of floss were not in the least bit variegated, but I loved the color so used it anyway. Besides, it perfectly matched what I wanted to use as finishing fabric, Joyeux Noel Pearl by French General.

I liked this one so much, I stitched a 2nd one using the same fabric but Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe Rose Red floss.
