  • In my Flosstube #5 (near the end), I showed the House and Garden Sampler I made for myself. In this video I will explain how I designed it and give tips on how you can make one for yourself. See info on the saying on my piece below.

    The saying on my house sampler is from a song that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir (now "Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square") sings called "A Gaelic Blessing" which I believe is an arrangement based on an old Gaelic poem. The arrangement is by John Rutter. And the song is on the Mormon Tabernacle Choir album titled "Peace Like a River". The song is also sung by other Christian choirs and available on other choir albums.
    The lyrics are:
    Deep peace of the running wave to you
    Deep peace of the flowing air to you
    Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
    Deep peace of the shining stars to you
    Deep peace of the gentle night to you
    Moon and stars pour their healing light on you
    Deep peace of Christ
    Of Christ, The light of the world to you
    Deep peace of Christ to you!

    This was quite the treat to watch and hear your evolution of creation on this piece.. I see you made this video quite a while ago but I still had to comment. It's absolutely gorgeous and your instincts which you seem to easily follow led you down a path to a beautiful beautiful piece. As I watched you talk about the creation of this piece I remembered a map that my son made of the 6 and 1/2 acres but we lived on in the mountains of North Carolina with our outbuildings and his favorite spots to play in the woods. I think it would be great to pull that drawing out which I still have and do it and then interlace it with memories and special things on the property that we're special to us plus some of our pets. We had goats chickens a pony dogs and kitties. Thanks for the concept. I'll let you know if I ever get it done I thoroughly enjoy all your videos and look forward to discovering more of them. And don't you dare say you're not a designer! This is what a designer does!

      Thank You Cathy, what kind words :) And oh yes, I think your son's drawing would make the most wonderful cross stitch ever. And with you adding other motifs to symbolize your memories, it would be a precious heirloom. What a great idea. And please let me know when you get it started :)

    I still think this is one of the most amazing pieces I've ever seen. As a memory keeper I love the whole idea of this. I might try something similar with my childhood homes. There are only 3 houses, with most of my memories revolving around the middle one. I might need to do some pattern research. Thanks so much for this video.

    • @Handworkmaniac

    Hi hi. You are such a confident woman and I love it. Love your videos so much. Your WIPS in your other videos I am crazy about :) I love this video, still watching it but had to type first haha. This is such good timing as I was pondering on the idea of making a house sampler for myself as well as those season and months of the year samplers, I think it is from Little House Needleworks. I live in South-Africa so I don't order from overseas, too scared to take the chance. But I wish I could have them. Ok I babbled enough. Oh and where did you get that sayings on your house sampler? Would you mind sharing them with me, and then may I add them on my sampler? They are precious. Thank you and take care!

      @Handworkmaniac  5 років тому

      Thank You!! I did mine on 40ct linen, I am at work so I don't have the color here with me. I just used the graph paper I had and knew that 1 square would equal one stitch on my piece, so 20 squares would be one inch on the piece. Good Luck!!

      Hi Tammy!
      I knew that each square was going to be 100 by 100 and I allowed some extra for the border so I kind of knew about what size the sampler would end up, when I started it. My fabric was 40 ct linen and it was about 25 x 25 inches.
