I finished Kiriki’s sampler a few weeks ago, but took my time washing and stretching it. Let’s have a look.

I like the overall result of my stitching, but I do wish the ink transfer had been darker. It’s almost invisible.

The embroidery turned out well. I really like that rose in the center of the skull’s forehead made out of bullion knots. And I also enjoy pistil stitch, which made up the flowers on the top of the skull.

This pattern came with the sampler club bonus. (I think it was the reason I bought this, the haunted house, and the crow, because they were the last available samplers that included the sampler club bonus). It’s a cute little candy corn cat, which I have diligently embroidered and which will stay in this form until someone comes to deal with my estate.
