Here is what I have so far! The diamond pattern and the flower pattern both came from Jane Bostocke's sampler from 1598.
The linen fabric that I am using is not an even weave, so the pattern appears elongated. I am using twisted black silk thread for the embroidery. I counted every third hole per stitch on the linen fabric.
The fabric is mounted on to a slate frame, as seen here.
Watch as I embroider this project from beginning to end here.
