"Sampler Afghan"...

Put together all (just 12 blocks not 25 like the pattern has)..I thought it would be a nice "throw" rather than "blanet"...
Hope you can see all the details in every block.....thanks for all your help too!!

Is it stored on Flickr? You can select a larger image size. I can't make that one larger, but if you post just the link so I can get to your Flickr page I can help.

Much better size! You can tr embroidery, but you'll have to be careful that the thread doesn't show through the front.

What about just a separate sheet of paper laid out in squares detailing what each square is. You could keep a master copy if it gets lost. That that way nothing would mar the beautiful work.

That is really, really nice. Thanks for the trouble of the second picture; it does show up better. We needed a closer look. A good variety of stitches/motifs.
