Daisychain ABC's Crewelwork Sampler

Even though I had plans to start working on this sampler 
in March... that didn't happen.
(Pdf pattern: Daisychain ABC's Crewelwork Sampler
by Alicia Paulson.)

Instead of actual stitching I did end up being able to find the threads that I wanted
to use for the sampler locally. At first using my DMC embroidery floss
 stash was the plan however I changed my mind and decided to stick 
to crewel wool as in the original but in colors that suited my needs.
I may not use them all in the sampler but, don't you think is nice to have
choices? Even venturing a bit outside the original colors
needed just to make it a bit fun and a bit more eye catching?
I most definitely think so! :-) 
Most likely this sampler will see its start by mid May or 
the beginning of June. I'm looking forward to working on it!
