Love the box and the sampler design.

Is the sampler your own design?

No, it's a .... *thinks a bit* I think it's a Little House Needlework design -- or one of those similar designers :thinks: . I used crewel wool on canvas rather than their suggested threads which I think were GAST or WDW.

Edited:
Found it, here -- it uses DMC, it says; I must have imagined the hand-dyed ones :-)!
