5 stars out of 5 from United States Tiny United States flag on 04/27/2025 - Excellent
Although I didn’t start this pattern yet, if it’s anything like the 3 previous Long Dog Samplers I’ve completed, it will be a show stopper. The patterns are easy to read. Something I like about them is they are single sheet patterns so it’s easy to use my magnetic line keeper as opposed to the booklets with other patterns.
