Welcome Friends Saying and Sampler

Tuesday October 20, 2009
I really enjoy stitching samplers and I know that many of you do too. The free Welcome Friends Sampler was created using motifs and letters from the Alphabet Block Sampler. Actually, the Alphabet Block Sampler is incorporated into the larger design. If you like, stitch the Welcome Friends Saying (shown here) for a smaller project.

Stitch these designs with the floss colors of your choice. You may want to choose several colors as I did or use a single color that coordinates with your home decor. If you are stitching the Welcome Friends Samper for a gift, it will be fun to surprise someone with a sampler that coordinates with her decorating scheme!
