Here it is....the sampler pattern. We are turning this into a contest. Stitch this while we are in France. Send a picture of your completed project to my e-mail address alma@blackbird-designs.com
Barb and I will purchase some fun items in France for the winner. Your picture will be your entry to the drawing. Believe me ....Barb and I are good shoppers. We leave for France on April 18th and return April 27th. So your picture must be to me by the 27th. The contest winner will be announced April 29th. We need a bit of time to recover after the trip.
This is not a design contest. We will draw names from the pictures submitted. Hopefully we can post pictures of the "fun items" as we find them in France. My daughter is taking her computer and I hope to put it to good use.
Get ready....get set.....GO!

Thank you for this lovely chart. Have a wonderful time in France I'm sure you will.
Alma, this sweet design tempted me so much that I started yesterday evening. It's going to be tiny :), I put in some more stitches this morning and found it hard to stop. Don't know if I'll make the deadline but at least I am having fun!
Thank you so much for this design and have a wonderful time in France.
Oh, it is fun. Thank you for this lovely chart :-)
This is so pretty and a really lovely gift. Thanks so much. I'm going to try and fit it in between birthday and wedding gifts...fingers crossed (or not if I'm supposed to be stitching :>)
Warm wishes Angela

Alma, if you teach me how to stitch a sampler like this, I'll not only show you how to turn a heel in sock knitting, I'll personally knit you as many as you'd like from here to eternity. My life will never be complete til I stitch a sampler. (sigh...and wink)
Alma,
Someday I would love to take a lesson with you too. The Red Sampler is tempting, I think I could get supplies organized in time for your return. I will definitely look forward to seeing what you purchase for your prize.
Best wishes on your trip, sounds wonderful.
Oh my gosh!!! I'm so glad I checked out your blog. I hope I can finish this on time! Have a great trip!
Stacy
I try to stich it, too! This's a very kind idea and pattern! I wish you a good travel, too!
I am so happy I found your blog. Thank you for the sampler, I'll pick my fabric tonight. I wish you a wonderful trip.
Have a wonderful time in France! I will stitch with You!

Thanks for this gift
Nantes is too far from Toulouse for me to come and meet you ...
so ;) may be next time, you'll come to the South West of France where Françoise Prax's shop, Alphabets, may lure you.
Thanks for the sampler
Firstly, I'm over the moon that I found your blog!
Secondly, thanks for this lovely chart. I would love to join the contest (actually started my very bijoux sampler yesterday in pinks on brown) but I'm working on "I Thee Wed" which must be finished before May!!
Have fun in France :)

Thank you for this lovely chart. Despite having surgery on my right hand a short while ago, I am determined to join in this contest and have made a small start using both linen and silk thread from France. I may not complete it in time for the contest but I will certainly try!
Enjoy your trip!
Thanks for this gift, it's lovely. Enjoy your trip.

Hugs Su
I have just found your blog and hope to take part. I am a bit late but will have ago.
Thank you for the gift and competiton.
Hope your trip to France is good.
I just found this the other day. Wed I think.I started on April 22 but then read the name after I was half done and seen Rouge~~~ Red...
My first was in blue, lol. So yesterday I looked for and found some reds and started # 2. I got it done today. This was such a fun little stitch! Thank you! And thanks that I could take part!
I started on this Friday night and stitched on it this weekend. I stitched until 8:00pm last night and got through all of it except 2 rows of the alphabet. I wanted to enter so badly. I emailed Vonna and ask her how she stitches soooooo fast! I just couldn't get it finished in time, but love the pattern. I will email my picture when I do finish it. I am having fun with it and wish I could have finished in time to enter the contest. Thanks for the beautiful pattern and the fun!!! Amy
If I'm not too late, I would like to enter also!! Have a wonderful trip!
I love your blogg and all nice work !!!
