Elizabeth Sheffield 1784 - The Scarlet Letter
I've never been a fan of Daylight Savings Time. Losing an hour of sleep in the spring can't be good for my sleep rhythm. And this morning I realized that I'd lose an hour of stitching today!
The photo above shows my progress on Elizabeth Sheffield, a sampler from The Scarlet Letter. I also participate to a worldwide blog of women who are stitching SL samplers, and I posted my progress there this morning.
I just love working on Elizabeth. Her brilliant colors and charming figures make me HAPPY to look at her. Her original must have been stitched by a girl who really enjoyed making it.
My progress is slow, however. There are vast amounts of over-one stitching, and that takes me a long time to do. But I think she is coming along beautifully, don't you?
