Designer: Shakespeare's Peddler
Collection: Nashville Needlework Market 2026
Item: SHAKE-029
Type: Cross Stitch Patterns
I started this series back in 2024, inspired by the colorful little cards that needles used to be packed in. And, stitched on 40 count, they fit in a standard 5 by 7 frame! For this one, I wanted to celebrate the humble penny - a coin which we've had in our pockets and purses, bought candy and cross stitch stuff, and made wishes in fountains. I have a great affection for Abraham Lincoln, whose profile is on the penny. So look for nods to Abe: a train, an axe, the log cabin he was born in, "Honest" and a top hat, a Lincoln Star quilt block, a basket of pennies, and the Illinois state tree (white oak), bird (cardinal) and flower (violet). Oh, and a blackberry pie, his favorite dessert!
Pattern is stitched on 40 ct. linen with DMC, Gentle Arts, and Weeks Dye Works floss. The stitch count is 89 x 125 and the finished size is 4.45" x 6.25".
