A Most Noble Pursuit

Ten of your favorite design companies have joined forces to create a limited-edition collaboration sampler, A Most Noble Pursuit. This sampler was released at the Nashville Needlework Market in February 2006 and is still available in limited quantities.

The designers involved in this project are Ann and Liz of Brightneedle, Kathy of Carriage House Samplings, Tracy of Hands to Work, Lori of La D Da, Tricia of Patricia Ann Designs, Susan and Pam of Praiseworthy Stitches, Cathy of Primitive Traditions, Vicki of A Stitch and A Prayer, Ellen of With My Needle, and Candy and Mary of The Workbasket.

Each of the ten designers has designed a block. The blocks can all be stitched to make a very large sampler or the blocks can be stitched individually. All ten charts are packaged together in booklet format with a photograph of the stitched piece on the product cover.

Sampler Details: This is a large sampler—408 stitches wide by 242 stitches high.

Linen: The model uses 36-count hand-dyed linen from Lakeside Linens.

Threads: The model is stitched using Needlepoint Inc. silk threads. DMC substitutions will be provided on the chart.
