Britomart Sampler by Katie Strachan.
The chart is 44 pages, full color, wire bound, and with truly stunning photography.
Worked with reversible stitches in Soie de Paris and Soie Gobelins from Au Ver a Soie.
You can purchase the full kit from Katie's webshop. She will be offering a class in September 2025 for the sampler and you can purchase the class/kit at the same time.

Project is 113 stitches wide by 346 stitches high. Worked on 40 count Legacy Picadill White or White Thistle. A Stitcher's Quarter (18x35.5) will be sufficient (it needs 12x24). Picadill White is a lovely 40 count linen to stitch one. It's an off white and White Thistle is just a later mill run of it, which changed the color slightly. We have a few yards of Picadill in stock as well as White Thistle. To the right is a photo of Picadill stitch with some Soie de Paris and a #28 Bohin Tapestry needle.
Soie de Paris colors: 0152, 0199, 0277, 0703, 0714, 0734 (2), 0741,1011, 2533, 2912
