Folk Art IX
Strawberries
c. 1984 homespun Elegance, Ltd.
This is one of those patterns ... that I purchased 2nd hand. I knew it existed, couldn't locate it anyplace. I saw the sampler stitched and kept looking. There are 2 samplers of berries and I still want to stitch them!
Meanwhile, I stitched the small pincushion [photo shows design on wooden stand]. When I started on light pink aida cloth, the yellow/blue didn't show up - needed to reverse those two colors in the 'pot'. I used GAST Cherry Wine, Buttercrunch on the berries; Weeks Ivy for the leaves/stems; Needle Necessities 1342 + GAST Buttercrunch for the strawberry pot.
These are photos of the pattern leaflet front:
