Pre-order: Autumn Basket Sampler (ships late September)

"Autumn Basket Sampler" is a nod to the sampler tradition. Alphabet samplers were often used to practice stitches and letters, so pairing it with a seasonal basket felt like a fitting update. The faded alphabet stitched into the background represents the way old samplers fade with time. This mix of an alphabet sampler and an autumn floral basket ties two classic cross stitch traditions into one piece in an updated style.

Stitch count is 130 x105
Fabric is 36ct Sand by Fiber on a Whim
Stitched one strand of floss over two fabric threads

Threads Used:
Weeks Dye Works: Moss, Red Rocks, Terra Cotta
Classic Colorworks: Rainy Day, Caterpillar, English Ivy, Autumn Spice
The Gentle Art: Flax, Toffee

There is a DMC thread conversion within the pattern. This pattern uses only full crosses.

‼️ IMPORTANT preorder information, please read: 

This is an upcoming release at Needlework Marketplace, held on 21-24 August.

✉️Shipping estimate: we expect to dispatch Needlework Marketplace releases in late September.*

✨Please place marketplace preorders separately from any in-stock products, unless you are willing to wait for the whole order to ship together.✨

*When we place orders at Needlework Marketplace, the majority of new designs come from the US. Orders are sent to a central location before being shipped internationally (saving postage and keeping costs down for you!), but this comes with a wait. Based on previous years, we expect delivery around the end of September. This estimate will be shorter for items from UK designers or designers where it is cost-effective to receive direct shipment, however, please be aware that your whole order will be held until it is complete, regardless of whether some items arrive earlier than others. If you wish to receive orders as and when they arrive, please place multiple orders - any overpayment of shipping will be refunded once orders are dispatched.
