Band description:
This band is a variation on basic buttonhole stitch
Fabric and Thread:
The sample is worked on Aida. I only used one thread on this section of the sampler. It is a cotton thread which was hand dyed by me with procion dyes
Size:
The sampler is 15 cm (6 inches) wide and all sections are stitched together in one long band sampler.
The sampler is currently 44 ft 5 inches or 533 inches (1353.83 centimetres) or 14.8 yards (13.53 metres) long and still being added to.
Date:
This section of the sampler was finished in December 2005.
