I could listen to you speak all day. I am from the USA, state of Indiana, and your work is impeccable. I love your zest for all your Samplers. Thank you!
What a thrilling story about Allice! And such a lovely sampler. Nicola, you are such a dedicated stitcher who gives us so much! Thank you. The t-shirt. Brilliant!
Oh my, Allice is absolutely gorgeous. I love the front colors, but am also looking forward to seeing her back. The sampler gives an overall feeling of maturity and grace that typically would not be displayed by a ten year old so that makes it seem even more precious to me. I look forward to hearing what additional history on Allice that you may discover; having some history truly makes you feel like you have some small bond to the stitcher. Thank you so much and enjoy your stitching...........
What an intriguing sampler, and the history of Allice. Can’t wait to hear more about her. So glad you were able to procure and share this sampler. Your excitement is contagious. Be well and thank you Nicole.
Allice is simply gorgeous!! I love everything about her. Thanks so much for sharing. Love your sweater - it was made for you!! Stay safe and happy stitching.
Oh my! Alice is one of my all time favorites! I love them both! I think you are going to have best sellers!!! Thank you for sharing with us. Beautiful!
just catching up on you tube watching of your channel, that's about the only one I have time for. Allice I absolutely stunning and it's the history that captures me. The fact she is from your little town is amazing and that you might see her actual grave is so moving. Simply amazing news - glad you are out and about more and the photo walk of your and BB's adventures is a feast for the eyes. Thanks for all you do for this community of stitchers. mel
I just love it when you have history on the samplers you reproduce. Also enjoyed your video on the previous owner of your house and when you visited her grave. Such a touching story about her and that she is remembered by you this day.
Allice is a beautiful sampler; cannot wait to see your reproduction. I’ve not attempted a large sampler yet; I purchased your little gem Sarah Spencer to try my hand at it before going to a larger project. I am loving it! Thank you for all the wonderful history you provide on these young ladies, so interesting. -Anne
Oh, Nicola! I think Allice may be one of my favorite samplers of the HATs collection! Sweet, precious, beautiful! Thank you for sharing her with us. I’m so glad she’s arrived “home” with you! ❤️
Alice's sampler is lovely but I was almost in tears hearing of her early death. Poor dear she will never know the pleasure her sampler will bring to us. I hope you can find her grave and share it with us. How wonderful that she lived in your area and that she will be honored by all the needlewomen who will reproduce her beautiful work. Thank you so much for the story of this sampler.
Love both samplers Nicola❤️ Alice is so pretty and unique! Love those colors on her! Love the stories with all of these reproduction samplers. Have a good weekend!
I am so pleased that Alice came into your possession! The sampler is a definite treat for the eyes. The border begs to be stitched as does the motives and messages. The sampler is so lovely! Your little gem in progress does remind me of the artwork of Peter Max which always reminded me of inspired stain glass through the centuries. Stay well and stitch on!
Nicola, Allice is just lovely! I look forward to her story unfolding further and am really excited to see the actual colors of some of those motifs. Jane is so fun! The unrestrained use of color is quiet a joy and I see now why that carnation reminds you of the US.
Good Morning! I love all the history you share that goes along with each Sampler. Such an amazing beautiful Sampler that Alice/Allice stitched at such a young age. And what a treasure to know that you have passed by the very house she lived in. This Sampler was meant to be cared for by you .....always.
I love the colours in Allice and cant wait till she's chartered and on sale ! I also love your pop in videos, and it would be great if you manage to fit in time for them to continue when we're all back into some sort of normality !! Stay well and safe Nicola. Christine Rogerson
It never seizes to amaze me how talented those young - very young! - little girls were! We will wait impatiently for this new sampler but meanwhile, enjoy your time reproducing it! Thank you!!
I love this one from Alice I was born in Cornwall be lovely to know more info about Alice she's very talented girl can't wait for it to be charted be amazing
Good morning Nicola! I LOVE Allice. She is so beautiful! I would love to stitch her someday. I love the two borders. Roses are some of my favorites to stitch. I too get emotionally invested in these girls and wonder how their journey of life was. I look forward to hearing if you find more information on her. You already have so much history in her. I am also looking forward to Queen of the May 2020. Have a wonderful week!
I so love these educational video Nicola, Thank You so much again for sharing your knowledge with us! And Allice is just gorgeous! I was looking at your shirt and i was wondering if you had stitched the "Little gem" words on it! LOL!
Allice is absolutely exquisite! Such a shame she died so young. I love all of your videos as they are also a lesson in history. I am very pleased she is now in you safe hands and glad you were successful at the auction too.
My great grandparents were Cornish. He was a miner and immigrated to the US in the state of South Dakota. Her name was Alice and that’s my middle name.
Nicola I can tell you, because my father was a Rancher and actually raised these breed of cattle. They are known as "British Whites!" Kimberly Titeca Dunbar "Titeca Ranches" in Montana and Oregon USA
I am really looking forward to stitching Alice. But I had a question. Would you ever consider doing color conversions for the front of the samplers, how time has aged them, as well as the colors on the back? I have loved many of the samplers you have charted but sometimes the colors are too strong for me. My taste runs to the softer hues that time has given us. As soon as I saw Alice behind you I was very excited, because how she looks now is so beautiful to me. Thank you for all you do for the stitching community Nicola. Stay safe!
Oh my! Allice is so beautiful! It was her destiny to be in your care, I think samplers have a way of finding their way home and Allice surely did. I’m hoping Allice is rocketing to the top of the must be charted soon list, her border is gorgeous! Honestly the whole sampler is stunning and to think she was 10 years old. I cannot wait to see her backside 😆 I am grateful you paused the video and fetched Jane because 🤤 🤤 🤤! Seeing her now convinces me even more that it was the right decision to chart her with the backside colors. It was the proper way to honor this little girl! Her release will not come soon enough for me! - Soozie
@@nicolaparkman I am Spanish and I see your videos but I do not know just English so I appreciate your answer since you may have said it in your video but I do not understand it and with your reply I can translate with a translator, 😅 thank you so much😘😘😘
Hello samplers are history so i am giong to do my own sampler including my mum and dad there childern and my family, where i live and dates and whats happening in 2020. I love the colours in your sampler. I am using the silks i have. I do like your channel very intresting. I think we need to make a record of this time.
Allice’s Sampler is beautiful and such an unusual way to incorporate the text. Nicola, I know that you love to gather as much information as you can about your girls, so I hope that you don’t mind me mentioning that the verse ‘Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth’ comes from Ecclesiastes Chapter 12v1. The following verses talk about the pains of growing old which, as you have already discovered, sadly she did not get the chance to do. Very poignant indeed. I’m so glad that she is in your care. Look forward to seeing and hearing more about her.
Always happy to see you. Hope one day you return to Denver. It is exciting having a local sampler. I felt same way when I did Margaret Cottam. She was from Clitheroe where my husbands family use to live. rockymountainstitcher.blogspot.com/search/label/Margaret%20Cottam That sampler is fabulous. Will be another to add to my collection for sure. Jane is awesome too. Thanks for sharing. Patti
How special to live so close to where these girls lived. I’m loving the history you put into each of your pieces! Thank you.

Hi Nicola - did you release Allice? Can't find her on HATS. Thank you.
No yet. She is in storage for now.
