Ink Circles - Quackworth 2007

With a wink towards the historical Ackworth School in West Yorkshire, England, this sampler is a painstaking rendition of an antique sampler completed at the Quackworth School, an independent boarding  school in the Columbia Basin for prestigious waterfowl (the Quackers).

62 x 192 stitch count.

These models were stitched on 40 count Lakeside Linens over 2 using 1 strand of floss. The monochromatic version uses Carrie’s Thread in Rusty Nail on Bisque fabric. Olde Willow Stitchery Hand-dyed threads were used on Green Slate fabric for the version on the right.
