The maker of this pattern used her Pfaff Creative sewing machine to demonstrate stitch sampling on both the Grace and Eliza Jane bags on her site. I really fell in love with the colors and uniqueness of those bags. When I got my pattern I emailed her and asked her how she created this technique as well as one other. She explained how she created the look.I didn't want patchwork like her bags though so I decided to make my stitch sampler cover with stripes. I used a different color embroidery thread and different stitch pattern for each line.
I wanted to use the monograming feature as well so I picked scriptures that mean something to me to write out.
This side has Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path."
I am in love with this cover. I had a lot of fun making it. Stitching out 29 rows of decorative stitches does take time though. . . hours of time. The actual construction of the cover once the stitching is complete takes only about 15 minutes though. When I started this one I was wanting to embroider a cover and couldn't settle on an embroidery pattern. I'm happy I made this one instead for now!
