Garden Path is a collection of four little plots of florals, each with their own unique flowers and colors. Sample uses primarily back stitch, running stitch, couching, chain stitch, and french knots. You can use your own favorite stitches to make this fun project your own. Finished, the sampler measures 8" x 8", and can be framed or stitched into coasters or pattern weights.

About Rebecca and Dropcloth:
The story of Dropcloth Samplers started at Squam Art Workshops. In the summer of 2010, on a whim, Rebecca designed and printed an embroidery sampler, and sold over a hundred of them at the Squam Art Sale. Word got around the blog-o-sphere, and one thing led to another. Why "dropcloth"? A dropcloth is something that can get messy - a piece of fabric that you can afford to make a mistake with. You can jump in and take a risk!
