Tales from Periphaeria

Designs, and designer’s musings, from the edge of the Universe

It’s time!

calendar February 1st, 2011 by Lady Periphaeria

The day we all have waited for is now here: “Star Sampler” Stitch-A-Long starts now! (If you are new to this project you can find basic information from here.)

But, before we get into the chart there’s yet another file available for download regarding the project.
I know there are people who would like to have information about those three mysterious letters in their archives so I edited the blog post a bit and made a *.pdf file out of it. You can download it using this link (Right click and “Save” – please do NOT open the file from the link directly!): Those Three Mysterious Letters.

I have stitched half of the first part already just to give you a better image of what the design will look like when stitched.

I’m stitching mine on 40 count Flax Newcastle linen using one strand of Anchor’s 45 (main) and 1084 (contrast).

You can download the first chart right clicking the picture below and saving the chart (”Save Link As” or somesuch, depending on your browser) on your computer.

Do NOT link directly to the files – also do NOT share the design through email, forums, blogs, photo hosts or through any electronic or physical media!

    I’ve let all my yahoo list friends know, and I’ll post about it after the trip to the post office and grocery store. Yay! Good to see this. Thinking I might, maybe … but what color to choose?

    My computer does not like tif format. We have had to do all sorts of magic to make it work. BUT the design will be fab!!!
