From the Hands Across the Sea description: This beautiful reversible band sampler has been reproduced with Au Ver à Soie d’Alger silks based on the vibrant colours found on the front of the sampler today. The skein quantities have been calculated based on 1 strand on 36ct fabric. We have included a Soie 100.3, DMC and NPI conversion below. We have not specified a particular brand or colour of linen. However, the original sampler was executed on uneven linen that is closest in colour to the DMC shade 3782. The original sampler is approximately 7.50” x 26.50”.
