on 01/03/2023 - It is not cross stitch!
I hadn’t realised that this sampler comprises a lot of backstitch and some speciality stitches with only a bit of cross stitch in it, but not a lot. Anyway, the sampler is stunning, and I will definitely attempt to make it to turn it into a traditional knitting frame floor bag.
