Did someone say Adam & Eve?
Yes, Ann Smith is an A&E sampler. Just haven't gotten to the Adam and Eve part yet. It's coming though. Here she is so far.
The A&E part comes after those red words down at the bottom. And it's all over one. Gulp!
In all the excitement of showing off my new framing last week, I forgot to post a pic of my samplers hanging up. Would you like to see my A&E wall? Or rather wall and a bit? Ta da!
Let's see if I can do this. On the wall on the left is the Jenny Bean Creation Sampler by Shakespeare's Peddler and under that, Guarding Eden by Examplars from the Heart. Moving to the right, on top is Jane Atkinson by the Scarlet Letter and under it is Frances Eden by Handwork Samplers. To the right of Jane is the Charlotte Clayton Sampler by the Northwest Sampler Guild. Under that is Paradise Lost by Plum Street Samplers. Under that, on the left is Margaret Pence by the Good Huswife and to the right is Fruit of the Spirit by Plum Street Samplers. To the right of Charlotte is Sarah Esh by Carriage House Samplings. Under that is Know Ye by La D Da. And finally on the bottom right is Hallow Eden by Plum Street Samplers. Whew! And yes, Paulette, you are represented three times up there with your designs!
Thanks as always for stopping by and saying hi. I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

Oh my I can't believe you wrote this 6 days ago and I am only just catching up. I love your sampler and that scripture is one of my favourites - the one you are working on now that is. Your wall is incredible. Me and my good friend Tina are itching to have a wall like that so I will be passing on your link to her next time we chat online. Drool drool - off to get a tissue. x
Oh Margaret, your work and your wall is fabulous. Oh my gosh I can't stop drooling. Everything is so pretty and perfect. I am just in awe of it. And your kitty she is just so cute, she has grown so much. What a sweetie. I love cats, but right now I have 5 dogs. Yep, I said 5 through no fault of my own, my son keeps bringing them home. NO MORE I put my foot down and its about time. LOL But I must admit I am a pushover for a furbaby. Thanks so much for visiting my blog I am trying hard to keep up with it. I hope you will visit again soon.
Irene was just awful around here. So much devastation. Glad you guys were safe, repairs are a pain but you and your family are more important. xoxoxox
My dear Margaret, I am absolutely speechless, as I survey all of the beautiful samplers that you have stitched. They are incredible, and I think that they should be in a museum of art! Adam and Eve is going to be another amazing piece of needlework splendor!
Lovely wall of stitching. And the piece you are working on is gorgeous as well. Silly Mia! LOL! She tickles me. Huggles.
Oh, wow. I love your sampler wall. Beautiful.
What an absolutely beautiful collection of samplers. My favorite is Grances Eden but it's OOP - AAaRGh! Oh well I'll just drool over yours.
Ahh (indrawn breath) what a gorgeous sampler wall, Margaret! Thanks so much for sharing and identifying. I'll be watching for more...
I just love the colours on Ann, they just pop off the fabric! Nice progress on her. As for your other pics?!?!?! Oh my, love, just love, seeing everything! What wonderful sampler walls!
Thanks for sharing your gorgeous wall, Margaret! It is so much fun, and such an inspiration, to see your gems up on the wall together - beautiful!
Your Ann smith sampler looks nothing less than fantastic! I have to skip over to your latest post to have a look at your progress - things have been a little bit stressful here and I am finally having time to get over and visit my blog-peeps! :-)
