1 Where Samplers Rule Just 15 minutes from the Airport at the NE CORNER OF CENTER & MCKELLIPS 106 E. McKellips Rd, Suite 111 Mesa, AZ TELEPHONE (480) THE ATTIC 2011 July 1 Issue No The Scarlet Letter s DOÑA DOROTHEA GAZANO y GARCIA July s Sampler of the Month When I saw this in person this past week at The Scarlet Letter, I fell in love! And, at the last minute, changed what was to be our July SOM. This gorgeous sampler has just been released and I can t WAIT to start it. There are two Lakeside linen options, if you look closely at the photo below, with the top linen closely matching the cover photo on the chart, but the linen below the silks is a warmer color and more like what I remember in my mind s eye. Both look beautiful with the luscious silks ~ it s just a matter of personal choice: a cooler or a warmer color. Let us know your preference. As our Sampler of the Month, you may save 15% by purchasing 2 of the following during July: chart $26.50 Lakeside Linen, the 40c cut w/2-inch margins is $20 AVAS silk $94.60 or incorporating a bit of Overdyed Silk using Gumnuts and Gloriana s Florimell with some of the AVAS called for, $121.50
2 THE ATTIC! PAGE 2 More About Our Sampler of the Month Here s what Marsha of The Scarlet Letter says about this sampler: Whether this is a Spanish, Mexican or Guatemalan sampler is uncertain but it exhibits design characteristics of all these cultures including the oblong shape as well as the pattern bands worked in a variety of stitches. The attribution "De Mano De Doña Dorothea Gazano y Garcia" is suggestive of a Spanish origin since she provides the surnames of both her father (Gazano) and her mother (Garcia). This line translates as "from the hand of (i.e. made by)". T h e t i t l e DOÑA is an honorific that is used with a first name to indicate a woman of aristocratic birth or who is deserving of respect for age and/or wisdom. The checkerboard stag in the upper right appears on several Mexican samplers in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. The naturalistic Berlin style floral bands in the third register date this piece to post The alphabets on the sampler vary and have some tales to tell. The first alphabet begins with the letter A and runs through J, L, M, N, Ñ...U, V, X, Y, Z. This is a Spanish alphabet: there is no letter K nor letter W, and the Ñ is also included. The second alphabet includes the letter K, but omits the letter W. Words with the letters K or W in Spanish are not unknown, but are all loan words from other languages. Traditional symbolic motifs include the stags, cockerels, ewers, and the crowned lion. The crowned lion is a symbol that appears frequently not just on Spanish samplers but also on the Spanish flag, coat of arms, coins, etc. It makes its appearance beginning with Isabel I who, when she married Ferdinand of Aragon in the 15th century, united the historic kingdoms of the Iberian Peninsula. Isabel was from Castilla-Léon: the crowned lion symbolizes the kingdom of Léon (meaning "lion"). Not surprisingly a castle (castilla) is also depicted on the flag. The structure in the upper left of this sampler appears to be a church. The Greek key motif in the lower right of the sampler appears on many other Spanish samplers. As you can see, the bands across the bottom are simply stunning! Stitches used are cross, back, and counted satin. On 30 count linen the reproduction will most closely approximate the size of the original- 19-1/2" x 14". The original sampler is in a private collection.

4 THE ATTIC! PAGE 4 An Attic Exclusive, Ann Wheatley s 1829 Sampler from the Private Collection of NeedleWorkPress! Above, Part 2 of the Ann Wheatley 1829 Sampler, being stitched by Margaret, our Stitch-Along leader for this summer project. Here s what she writes about this installment as her stitching notes to all of you: Part 2 of Ann Wheatley is quite straightforward. Be forewarned: It does involve a whole lot of words. As far as those words go, just remember that the s is taller than the other letters, so work them accordingly. Don't do what I did and make the top of the p be at the same height as the s and thus make the rest of your row be one stitch higher than it should be! Otherwise, the words are pretty straightforward. The bottom acorn border is the same as the top one, except for how it ends on the right. So just watch out for that and you'll be good to go. Enjoy! So that's it for July. Margaret P.S. Just wanted to provide an advance heads up that if using NPI, completing Ann s entire sampler requires a complete skein each of greens 156 and 664. So, if you aren t a thrifty thread user, you may want to have two skeins on hand. Remember, if you are participating at the top level, that is, with the purchase of chart, linen, and silk, you will receive the little notebook of your choice as a gift. Please make sure you ve given us your preference. Additionally, you may purchase more notebooks at $5 each. The notebooks will be included with a later installment as we are still gathering your preferences. Choose, from left to right, #1, #2, or #3.
5 THE ATTIC! PAGE 5 Part 2 of Country Stitches/With Thy Needle & Thread s Mystery Sampler, Birds of a Feather, features an alphabet and wonderfully colorful birds. I so wanted to get to them but didn t do much stitching while on vacation. I did, however, work on the alphabet a bit and found that the color called out in our silk legend was more tone-on-tone than I liked, so I tried the Lily Pad and liked it much better. Here s what that looks like, with the first few letters I stitched there as well: A visit to The Scarlet Letter was one of the highlights of our trip. The property itself, situated in the gently rolling hills of southeastern Wisconsin, is worth a visit, but once inside the guest house, where the samplers are displayed, it simply takes a sampler lover s breath away. One wants time to stand still to allow time to absorb it all. So inspiring!
6 THE ATTIC! PAGE 6 Above, samplers on display! Yes, I know, I should have turned my flash on sooner. Overs! I wish I d thought of it then. Below left, 2 of the miniatures Marsha has reproduced and, below right, And All Was for an Appil. This just might be the needlework that has inspired the Adam & Eve phenomenon in our sampler world. It is a commitment, for sure, to stitch but so worth it!
7 THE ATTIC! PAGE 7 On this page, more of Marsha s stunning reproduction tent-stitch needlework pictures. Clockwise from the upper left: Spot Motif Embroidered Picture ~ The Morris Dancer ~ The Huntsman ~ and 2 views of A Parrot, A Leopard, A Lion. Each one of these is stunning in person, solidly stitched in beautifully brilliant colors. I know I have overused the word stunning in describing these samplers, but it is what they are, S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G! Attic, Mesa, AZ Toll-Free: ATTIC ( )
