Sampler Berry
These berries include some of the borders, flowers, creatures we're familiar with – and are absolutely charming on these berries. Easy to personalize for yourself or a stitching friend!
Some 'scrunched-up' old lace tops the silk berry, while the linen berry sports a square of brown wool and silk ribbon.
Sampler Berry is sold as a “partner” chartpak, a format which includes instructions and charts for linen and silk berries.
