Blackwater Hollow Sampler

10" by 13"

Lori's farmhouse is so fantastic so I added that to the top.....her house is a wonderful white but white just wasn't going to show up on the linen I chose.  When I met the donkeys we fed them persimmons so I added plump persimmons that vine up the sides.  My first evening on the farm we saw the most beautiful full moon that glowed orange.....it was truly amazing.  I added a moon but it's a crescent so it didn't blend in with the persimmons.  Leading into Lori's shop is a garden surrounded by a fence a gate and an arbor.  And in that garden is the coolest old cauldron.  So, I absolutely had to have the cauldron (a witch is nothing without her cauldron : ) and I added an arbor too.  The scissors are a symbol of our friendship in stitching and both our initials are at the top around the house. 
And on my drive out to the farm I came across a sign for Black Hollow.  I thought that sounded pretty cool so I called this sampler Blackwater Hollow.
And I framed the sampler in the most fantastic frame that Lori's husband made.  It's amazing and a perfect fit for this sampler.

Tribute to Summer Sampler

 11" wide by 9" high

Each motif holds a fond memory and I added their initials as a finishing touch.

I started with the floral border.  It reminds me of Great Grandma's dresses and apron.  They were always so thin and soft.

Then I added the letters.....a sampler just isn't a sampler without letters.  But they remind me of so many car rides when Grandma and Great Grandma would spell words so my sister and I wouldn't know what they were talking about.  And now my sister and I find ourselves doing it to our kids : ) 

And of course I had to add the scissors.  They are for Great Grandma.  I spent hours and hours at her feet watching her stitch as a child.

The Strawberries are for Grandma.....she grew the most beautiful strawberries.  Her gardens were big and beautiful and I remember hauling bucket after bucket of water out to the fields.  And the reward was fresh berries with a little saucer of sugar.  Yum....my mouth waters just thinking about dipping those juicy berries in the sugar.

The house is what I remember their house looking like when I was a child.....of course it wasn't that big : )  It just seemed huge when I was little.

And my first memories of summer are of playing in the chicken house.....so I had to stitch a hen and her chicks.

The acorn is for the hundreds of acorns I collected on our walks.  It was always so exciting finding them with the tops still on.  And an extra bonus was to find 2 attached.

And finally the chair.....I remember sitting in the backyard on old wooden kitchen chairs shelling peas on hot summer afternoons.  I think I might have eaten as many as I shelled.
