Today I mentioned:

Cross stitch:

Hannah Green 1826 - Stitch-along starting January 1, going for 14 months, to end on March 1, 2026 (200 years after Hannah finished her sampler). I am using 36-count Just the Ticket (Tabbycat Linens) and the called-for DMC. Email me if you would like to have me send you a PDF that shows the breakdown of sections that I am going to do. Here is a summary:

1 lettered section per month, starting January 2025.
Starting with section E, also do one line of the over-one verse until you are done.
Along with section K, do the line with her name.
Along with sections L and M, do the little over-one birds and the large bird in the middle, finish out the text that is in that area of the sampler.
Section N - finish up. Please tag me and also use the hashtag (there is some question about how hashtags will be supported in Instagram …) @tworivers_58  #hannahgreen1826sal
