Normally I post on Sundays, but yesterday was busy, so here I am today, with a couple of new starts that arrived in the mail last week. Both are by The Essamplaire.
This one comes as a kit and is called "Elizabeth Easdon." Although it came with fabric, I swapped it out for Lakeside from my stash in 40 count examplar. I am using the AVAS shipped in the kit.
Doesn't this look like a lollipop vine? I'm enjoying the border. I wanted to stitch this because of all of the yellows and golds. This came as a chart only, and I kitted it up with 40 count Lakeside vintage strawflower and the called-for AVAS.
Pink likes to hang out under the recliner, so it's really important for us to lower the chair very s-l-o-w-l-y.
Happy week ahead, and many thanks, Erin, for finding the name of the Beatrix Potter chart I was looking for. I'm ordering it and will show it when it arrives.
Happy week ahead.

Pink reminds me of Bailey. The minute the recliner goes up he's under it and you have to remember that he's there.
Two great new pieces Glenna. I seriously need to stay away from your blog because it's so enabling.
I'm with Deb on that last one! You are definitely enabling me once again, Glenna! I love both your starts!
I cringed a bit looking at Pink under that recliner!
Love those yellows!
Pink is adorable squeezing out from there! :D
Must be his idea of a rabbit warren! LOL! Silly Pink. The stitching is very pretty.
You really must have that needle smokibg, Glenna. I really love both these samplers,
Oh Glenna!!! You've done it again! I want Elizabeth Easdon -- been trying to resist her. And here you go starting her! Argh! Love that border on Elizabeth Couper too! Argh! You are such an enabler!
Both are very pretty charts/WIPs! And here I thought you were doing something "Wizard of Oz"-ish by the title! Yup, they look like lollipops!
Yeah, I know that feeling. We have a cat who likes to get into the recliner. Guess they feel safe there, lol!
I'm thinking you are the QUEEN of samplers.... Love, love, love these new starts. HUGS Have fun.
2 beautiful starts. I love both of these samplers
I need to get back my stitching mojo :(
Have a great week!
Oh, sweet! I love both of your Elizabeths, especially the first one. Red and yellow is one of my favorite combos.
I cringed when I saw that pic of Pink!! Yikes! LOL
Great new starts, Glenna! I just don't know how you do it all. The pic of Pink is a little scary....
Love the colors on both!
I like both of your Elizabeth samplers, but I'm in love with the lollipop border.
Pink... watch out!!!
Tell Pink to pick a better place! Thinking of him under there will have me up, worrying, all night!
But at least I can hum the Lollipop Guild song in my best munchkin voice while the nighttime hours creep by. ;)
Oh, I love both of your new starts. Beautiful!!
These are beautiful samplers. I love essamplaire. Enjoy!!
Pink! Run! Run for your life .. how do you think 'The bunny lost its tail'?
Great new starts - they're both gorgeous samplers.
Hee hee lollipops! Love the colours on your new starts! Pink looks kinda squished.
Oh pretty new starts!!!! I love them. It's always fun to see what you are stitching on :-).
Wow, Pink. That looks dangerous!
I love both of your new starts. The "lollipop" border is so bright and fun. Our dog Petey likes to lay underneath the raised foot part of the recliner. We are constantly reminding each other that he's under our chairs. He's not as little asPink to squeeze completely underneath.
Both Elizabeth's are gorgeous Glenna!! Great starts!! :)
P.S. I found another yellow house sampler w/no alphabet that I though was pretty...

Both of your new sampler starts are beautiful but that Elizabeth Easdon is another "oh no" a must have ! I love AVAS and the v strawflower is a great color for this. I can't wait to see more - Melody
Gorgeous new starts - of course I'm partial to that yellow sampler!
LOL @ your lollipop vine! Very pretty sampler!
