Never Ending Sampler Panel 3 Band 4

Sorry for the delay in getting back to the sampler ladies.  I was running behind on the Spring 2018 issue of Crazy Quilt Quarterly magazine.  I have that done now and it will be released on February 1st.

So for today, I have Band 4 of Panel 3 of the Never Ending Sampler.  Here's the entire sampler so far:

And here is band 4:

This is worked entirely in cross stitch.  When choosing your colors, think in terms of Spring.  Daffodils and shamrocks or daffodils and hearts.

Here's Band 4 with the band 3 overlap for placement purposes:

Happy Stitching!

More Embroidered Door Hangers

Here are a few more embroidered door hangers that I've made:

These patterns are from my vintage iron-on transfer embroidery pattern collection.  I've been collecting them for years and years.  I find them at flea markets and antique shops.  I've bought a few from Ebay and Etsy too.  And on rare occasion, I get lucky and find them at garage sales!
