Pandemic Sampler

It's a year since the Pandemic Sampler pattern was released by Long Dog Samplers, and I'm seeing more and more people post their finishes in the Facebook group.  

as at 9 July 2021

I'm still aiming for a 31 December 2021 finish (fingers crossed).  I've got 6 more pages to go, so I'm trying to keep doing a bit every week. 


I love watching the pattern emerge.  What you see on the pattern is often quite different to how it looks once it is stitched.  

Here's what I'm aiming for:





Now it's time for the Peacock Party.  Feel free to link up a recent blog post below.

I remember when you started this cross stitching project. You are making good progress! I'm not a cross stitcher so the design looks overwhelming to me. Happy stitching!

I have been following many stitchers who are working on this piece and boy is yours a beauty. I wish that I had started this one as well, but boy is she a big one. I so look forward to seeing your finish. Happy stitching.

Spectacular. If it was me I think there might be one or two missed stitches. This will be a real heirloom.

Hi Wendy, good luck with your sampler. The real thing is much more intense than the pattern. It looks great.
