The photo above is a detail on section 49 on my Love of Stitching Band Sampler.
I have turned the photo on its side as this band runs vertically down the sampler and sits to the left just below the tiger.
Stitches Used:
With the exception of the cross stitch used to define the tiger, this area of Vandyke stitch is perhaps the largest block of stitches in this section of the sampler. I worked it in hand dyed rayon thread.
With this stitch we have covered all the areas on this section of the sampler and next week I will introduce section 50.
Fabric:
The foundation fabric is a hand dyed 18cnt Aida
Date:
This section of the sampler was worked February 2010.
Size:
This area on my Love of Stitching Band Sampler which is 15 cm (6 inches) wide and currently measures 96 feet 5 inches (2,938.78 centimetres), or 32.138 yards which is 29.3878 meters. It is still growing…

J’adore ce panneau que je trouve extraordinaire avec toute cette variété de points !
You do exquisite work!
I enjoyed all details on this part of your band sampler. Love the combo of counted cross stitch and pretty embroidery stitches.
So perfect! I love this beast.
