Thea Dueck (owner of The Victoria Sampler) is going to release the pattern over four weeks and we can stitch along as each section gets released.
There are no recommended linens or threads, so everyone's bookmarks will be quite different.

I chose some mauve linen that I had left over from my Sardinian knotwork piece (pattern by Yvette Stanton).
I'm using some of the threads left over from my Haunted House - also by The Victoria Sampler.
Which of course reminds me that I still have finished my Gingerbread Needlework Shop yet. I only have two more side to make now, so I still intend to have it ready for Christmas 2018.
And then I'll be able to start the Gingerbread Retreat Cottage which I have here waiting for me:
If you'd like to know more about my Gingerbread Village you can click on the tab at the top of this page - Gingerbread Village.
And of course my Christmas Village is still in the "To Do" box too!
An online friend in Canada had a destash sale this week, and I was tempted to buy a Chatelaine pattern and threads, but I resisted the temptation. I'm quite proud of myself. I was realistic and thought "when would I ever get to do this?".
I hope you've got something fun to work on over the weekend.
