Pencil Sampler
Is there anything better than a freshly sharpened pencil? Yes! Ten hand-embroidered ones. This sampler contains ten hand-drawn pencils ready to stitch in whatever colors you like. Will they be yellow Ticonderogas or brightly colored pencils? Your choice! The circles on the tops can be customized with numbers or letters.
Garden Path Sampler
Garden Path is a collection of four little plots of florals, each with their own unique flowers and colors. We used primarily back stitch, running stitch, couching, chain stitch, and french knots. You can use your own favorite stitches to make this fun project your own.
Yo Yo Rainbow Sampler
I designed this sampler as a nod to yo yo quilts- it's a part of a series of quilt themed embroidery projects. This one has it's own line of threads that go along with it.
Gingerbread Ornaments
Gingerbread Houses! An embroidery sampler that when complete you can sew into four festive holiday ornaments, perhaps with customized messages of love on the bottom or backside. Basic Instructions included.
About
Think of our samplers like coloring book pages for embroidery—there's no preparation necessary—they arrive ready to stitch. The first two samplers, Original and Sequel, were designed with the stitch names printed right on the cloth. You stitch as you learn, creating a lasting reference for all future embroidery projects. Other designs offer less guidance, encouraging you to make decisions as you go, choosing colors and threads that suit your own tastes. Have you been embroidering for awhile and you’re ready to shake things up? Perfect! Welcome! New to embroidery but ready to jump in? Great! We have custom Creativebug classes based on our most popular designs that are ready to walk you through every single stitch.
