Agnes Lyle 1832 is a reproduction of an original Scottish sampler in our collection, from Glasgow. We think her white house is spectacular and the peacock, birds and dogs are so full of character!
The pattern is 151 x 201 stitches and includes four-sided stitch, Algerian eyelets and over one, meaning it would not be suitable for stitching on Aida. Our model is stitched using 1 strand of floss on 36ct 'Brenda's Brew' from R & R Reproductions. We have used Weeks Dye Works threads for our reproduction but we also include a DMC conversion. The design area on 36ct fabric measures approximately 8 3/8" x 11 1/8" (21.3 x 28.3cm).
This is a reprint of a previously discontinued pattern from Blackbird Designs and features birds as well as "lollipop" style flowers.
