There were over 20 readers that wanted Yellow House! I scrambled and pulled a number, it matched Mary McMaster. Sorry to disappoint the others, did not expect that many requests.
This is the Sheepish Designs McCarthy sampler. I did mine on a unbleached linen that is very gray and dull, do not like it at all. Emails only.

The holes are shown here and the crease is worn, a few marks centering the over one verse.
If I ever get the gumption to remove it (the thought of mounting again is holding me back) I will dip it in a bit of yellowish tan dye. I know some of you just fell off of your chairs. The unevenness is the reflection from the other wall and it doesn't look too bad in this photo, but it does when hung with the other samplers on warmer linen.
And while waiting for Carole's heart testing at the hospital, I got a good start on the corrected Polish piece and finished it last night. Much better. Just in case you plan to stitch it, please download the latest chart. I changed it so many times and this final one looks more balanced and better than the others.
Again, I'm sorry for all the changes. I didn't plan it as a freebie, just as a gift, and I appreciate Alice's help with the proper lettering/slash.
I'm sitting on my swing with a light jacket! It's chilly without the sun and such a drastic change. I have my home made cold brewed iced coffee and it is divine.

Thank you Marly for your kindness to share the chart with us.
Did download the latest chart of your Polish stitching although I don't have Polish friends I like this a lot.
Have a great day

I think the McCarthy sampler really looks good with the sheep. They certainly pop on the linen color! Thanks again for the updated Polish chart.
