This cross-stitch collage is inspired by 19th-century Moroccan "chelliga" (embroidery samplers) housed in various museum collections. The entire pattern could be stitched as a whole, or separate components could be worked individually; the PDF includes charts for three small projects using the sampler motifs. There are no fractional stitches, and the design can be embroidered on aida or evenweave. A basic chart (without any explanatory information) that is compatible with Pattern Keeper is also included with purchase. NOTE: If you would like to stitch a companion piece, the Moroccan Sampler is exactly the same dimensions as the Iberian Sampler. Stitch count: 157 wide x 211 high. Approximate size: 11¼ x15 inches on 14-count aida or 28-count evenweave; 10 x 13¼ inches on 16-count aida or 32-count evenweave; 8¾ x 11¾ inches on 18-count aida or 36-count evenweave. This is a PDF file of an embroidery pattern, not a finished product. Once payment has been made, you will be sent a link via Etsy that will lead you to a downloadable PDF. Cliffside Stitches PDFs include an explanation of the historical/cultural background of the design, clear charts, suggested DMC floss colors, tips for using the design to create smaller projects, and photos of finished models. © Cliffside Stitches 2021 - Patterns are for personal use only.
