I love reproduction samplers but I have never been too sure as to whether they were "right" for LHN as a company. Since I love the creative process, I always felt they might not allow me the creative expression I love to have with each and every design we release. So instead of buying an old sampler and painstakingly reproducing every stitch (which looks VERY hard), I decided to try to create a girl's sampler in LHN style. No, it isn't old, not a reproduction, but rather a compilation of all of the things I love about old samplers.
The design is called "Sarah Street - Faithfulness". The surname "Street" is a very old name that dates back to the early founding of this country. I am sure there are many descendants by this day and time. I had considered releasing these designs in the "Dear Diary" line of patterns we currently have but instead thought to release them individually. I have ideas for more so I'll definitely be releasing a few in 2011.
"Sarah Street" will ship this month.
