Original Sampler
This first in a series of printed samplers to embroider is hand drawn and printed on cotton. You'll learn 15 new stitches and once completed, you'll have a resource to look back on for future projects as well as a cool embroidery to hang on your wall. It arrives ready to stitch!

+ Where can I see other examples of the finished sampler?
Instagram! Check out the hashtag #dropclothsamplers for tons of beautiful examples of all our designs, stitched by people like you. I hope you'll add yours to
the mix!
+ How should I back my sampler?
For best results, I recommend backing this fabric with a second piece of fabric (cotton or linen) before placing your fabric in the hoop. You'll get the flattest,
most even stitches this way. Check out my how to for this step on creativebug or IGTV (@dropcloth)
+ What size hoops should I use? I like a size 6- but use whatever you hoop you have on hand.
