Never Ending Sampler Panel 1

This is Panel 1of The Never Ending Sampler. This ongoing project, designed to appeal to both cross stitchers and crazy quilters, began in 2016 on my blog (kittyandmedesigns.blogspot.com). It is a series of samplers that can be sewn together as a continuous long sampler. I regularly post several bands that can be downloaded for free and used as crazy quilt seam treatments, stitched as individual cross stitch samplers, or as a band sampler; these could also be added to this Never Ending Sampler as the sections are sewn together.

Stitchers are encouraged to choose their own floss colors; as most rows could be worked in a single color. Each row could be a different color, or all be a single color. If using the designs as an individual band sampler, participants should be aware that the stitched area for each panel will be approximately 6 inches wide x 18 inches long. Fabric size should be 12 inches wide x 30 inches long for 14 count Aida or 28 count Evenweave over 2 fabric threads.
