"Lavender Sampler" is a charming counted cross stitch design which also features the Algerian Eye stitch, the Half-Rhodes w/Bar stitch and the Bullion knot. 

The traditional flat-bottom market basket is plaited with hardwood splints and features a sturdy handle.

These baskets have long been a functional part of the home, used for storage or for transporting items.

 This basket stores a bundle of lavender gathered from the garden and is decorated with a pretty ribbon. 

 The model is stitched using DMC threads and overdyed threads from The Gentle Art

to create the beautiful and subtle color variations evident throughout the cross stitch design.
