As soon as I had finished stitching Americana Red, I knew I wanted to design another sampler in blue!
This sampler is full of sewing and quilting motifs just like Americana Red, but instead of a barn, Americana Blue has a farmhouse. And who doesn't love that pair of scissors?
I really like the variegation in the floss, WDW Blue Jeans. It gives it a very timeless appeal, I think.

The frame is the same model as Americana Red, from Hobby Lobby. It has more warmth than the photo is showing.

I'm Robin, the designer behind October House. You've found my blog, where I ramble on about stitching and sewing and anything else that catches my fancy!
I love quiet colors, gentle stitches and making things by hand.
