The story goes that Cockayne is a land of plenty where hard times didn't exist. It was a fictional utopia, a parody of Paradise where idleness and gluttony were the name of the game. Houses were made of barley sugar and cakes, the streets were paved with pastry and everything in the shops was free.
Pattern is stitched using the fabric and floss of your choice. Stitch count is 257 x 292.

from United States on 10/19/2024 - Long Dog samplers This is my third Long Dog Sampler. I really like stitching on 32ct Belfast linen. Great fun and relaxing.
from United States on 10/11/2024 I'm a long time Fan of Long Dog Samplers. And once again Julia Line has created another fantastic pattern for the simple enjoyment of choosing my own colors and usually with Silk Floss on a 36 count linen. I love to be creative and making things my own by thinking outside the coloring box, of designers choices.
