FROM THE DESIGNER: "This is a sampler with a patriotic flair centered around the famous quote written in a letter by Benjamin Franklin in 1783. Just a year earlier, the Bald Eagle became the national bird of the United States when it was placed with outspread wings on the Great Seal of our nation. The eagle is the most pictured bird in all of America. The eagle with the flag in its beak is the central focal motif of this piece and would also make an excellent small pincushion or needlebook on its own.Stitch Count: 216 wide X 100 highModel was stitched on 36 count Tobias from Seraphim Fabrics and stitched with hand dyed floss from Weeks Dye Works, Classic Colorworks, The Gentle Art and DMC.Threads required include:DMC - 301, 611, 3032.Weeks Dye Works - 1092 Grits, 2102 Fathom, 2197 Oscar, 2240 Red Rocks, 2259 Cayenne, 2107a Blue Suede.Classic Colorworks - Sticks and Twigs, Ye Old Gold, Cayenne.The Gentle Art - 7045 Mountain Mist, 7079 Heirloom Gold Show more
