Jamee's Mary Wigham

Mary Wigham Sampler
WIP - stitching by Jamee J

Jamee shares: my Mary Wigham sampler in progress ....

I'm stitching it on 32 ct. linen over one.

I'm using DMC floss in many colors, hopefully only once on the sampler.

This will be my ode to DMC by the time I finish it!

They have so many beautiful colors, I couldn't choose just one!
