The * symbol in the trees and leaf motifs should be stitched using Grasshopper floss (the 'o' symbol). The leaf shapes will appear the same as those in the Tudor Rose berry design.
English Sampler Berries
The elegant berries are inspired by the motifs from a wonderful English/Norfolk antique sampler in my personal collection. Pretty, colorful, and classic, they are wonderful additions to your growing berry collection.
