Series of 4 Reversible Blackwork Samplers by Linn Skinner

This series of 4 designs is inspired by pages from Peter Quentel's printed modelbuch, dated 1527, the first known printed source to refer to Double Running Stitch as used in Blackwork as 'Spanish Stitch'. The designs vary in complexity - starting from Hearts and Flowers and ending with the Challenge Sampler. These designs come as spiral bound booklets, with historical notes, facsimile pages, charted diagrams. Each band is described individually with the stitching pathway marked numerically and in colour, taking the mystique away from these reversible designs. Why not stitch the 4 designs 'back to back' as a table runner?

The designs are all around 70 stitches wide and vary in height. They can be worked on the fabric of your choice.
