Catherine Maudsley by the Drawn Thread
40ct. Meadow Rue with NPI threads
I'm very pleased with how she came out.
In other news, the boy child has spring break this week. I feel like I've already done this since the girl child had her spring break the week before last. Oh well. I'm sure there will be lots of running around to do!
This is a short post this time. Time to move on! :D Thanks for stopping by and saying hi. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Woo! Margaret, your finished sampler is F-A-N-Tastic! Great job. I can't wait to see what you decide to work on next! Enjoy the boy child's spring break!
Yay! I love this sampler--and what's next, inquiring minds want to know.
It came out beautifully! It didn't seem to take you any time at all to finish this up.
Stunning and such a fast finish Margaret! TFS:)
Congrats on such a beautiful finish!
You should be pleased Margaret because your sampler is gorgeous! I love the border on this one. Congratulations on your finish!
Beautiful, Margaret. I'm so glad you stitched her,too. Yes, we all want to know what's next?
You have moved on Margaret!!! did you sleep at all lately LOL.
It is a gorgeous sampler and just love that border.
Have a lovely spring break and Easter.
This is just stunning! Congratulations, Margaret! You're such a speedy stitcher!
Holey Tamoley, Margaret! Another gorgeous finish! I love the black (at least it looks black on my monitor) floral border.
She's beautiful, Margaret -- you go, girl! Can't wait to see what you tackle next!
What a gorgeous sampler! It looks wonderful.
Catherine is absolutely stunning~~~ It is perfect~
Margaret - she looks wonderful!!! Again, it's one of those pieces that I see the chart and think, okay, but then I see if stitched and I just love it. Can't wait to see what you pick to work on next. My kids are off for 11 days - UGH - love having them around, but I don't get much stitching done (DH will be home too so there will definitely be little stitching done).
Wow! That's an impressive finish. I'm sure you weren't this far on it on your last post. It looks stunning.
Oh Margaret, your sampler is just DROP.DEAD.GORGEOUS!!! That's no exaggeration! Seriously beautiful! You stitch the BEST things ever!!
Can't wait to see what you pick next :-)
Enjoy the spring break!

Oh how gorgeous!!! I love the colors.
My daughter's Spring Break was the week of March 15. She is off on Friday. So we are going to a new park we discovered and have a picnic lunch. Sat and Sun are suppose to be stormy.

Margaret - your sampler is just beautiful! I love the colors. What's next?
Margaret, I want to take some of what you are taking - wow, girl its a beauty. I am still stuck on Jenny Bean. It would help if I was stitching and not on the computer looking at quilting fabrics....
We are looking forward to our Spring Break here- hopefully the weather will cooperate and we shall do some exploring of old castles & ruins which are close by. I am also planning a trip to the Celle Stickmuseum when I visit my dad in mid April - I am totally excited about that...now back to Jenny
Beuatiful work, congratulations on the lovely finish!
Margaret, how beautifully stitched. This sampler is just gorgeous.
Catherine looks fantastic! I love how that border just pops!
What a honey of a finish!!!! Just beautiful - makes me want to pull out my copy and get to stitching.... but I must resist!!!
she's awesome! Congrats!
Wow stunning finish!
Catherine is gorgeous, congratulations
Catherine turned out lovely Margaret. The border really calls to me. You will have to show it again when she's framed.
Can hardly wait to see what you are going to choose next!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!!!!!
Have just discovered your blog...how beautiful is your work. Can't believe all the samplers in your header! So many hours of stitching.
Wow, your sampler looks gorgeous!
Gorgeous! Congrats on another beautiful finish.
Hi Margaret. This is off topic of your present sampler (although it is beautiful, too). Ater seeing Charlotte Clayton, I finally found a chart and purchased it. Love those big cats! I prefer AVAS over NPI. I think I am going to go with 36ct, 1 over 2 threads. Anywhoo, my question is, did you use a full skein of each of the NPI colors (where one skein was called for) or did you have left over thread from each skein?
Thanks. Julie juels51@yahoo.com
Margaret, I was so inspired I purchased the pattern too. Although I don't know if mine would ever be as lovely as yours......I will try someday!!!
It is just beautiful!!!
Happy Easter!
Hugs,
Margaret B
Margaret, it is perfect!

Hi Margaret, I am a bit behind in my blog reading.
Just love the framing the pieces from your previous blog note. Paradise Lost is lovely.
Congratulations on finishing Catherine Maudsly - it is beautiful.
