Mary Wigham Download is Here

At last Mary is here! She is a Free download. But perhaps you might be kind enough even in these hard times to donate $1 every time you download an instalment. All the doantions are going right through to the Bursar at Ackworth School - though he is probably tucked up in bed right now.
There will be more details about stitching communities tomorrow - and I hope to catch up on all the questions and emails now. You, Me and Us - together we can do it! Now click here for Part 1 of Mary Wigham.

  1. Obrigada Jaqueline!
    The download, as well as the donation are done.
    Mary kept me busy since I got home today, but now she's sending a happy woman to bed.
    Goodnight

  3. I wasn't sure how many parts there would be for the entire design, so I just made a $10 donation and will add more later if need be. Thanks again for sharing this wonderful sampler with us!!

  8. Jacqueline - I have a quick question. I printed out the DMC color list from the earlier post and noted there were 23 colors. When I printed the chart today, I noticed only 22 colors are listed. It seems DMC 966 is the extra color listed on the blog that doesn't appear in the chart listing. I just wanted to confirm which is correct and whether DMC 966 is needed for the sampler.

    Thanks!

  9. It is just a wisp of 966 that is needed and I debated for a long time if we could manage with the slighter darker shade of green and perhaps you can. It is hard colour matching old samplers because often the floss is variegated in shades...You won't be needing the 966 until instalment 5 - so have a look when you get there and see what you think.

  10. Thanks for the quick response, Jacqueline! I think I should have some 966 in my stash, so I should be fine. :)

  13. So eager to start Mary, but I think she will have to wait until the weekend. Work does get in the way of stitching! I made a $25.00 donation now, rather than donating as each part is released. Thank you, Jacqueline, for doing this, and thanks to Ackworth for making the sampler available to you.

  14. Jacqueline,

    Would it be easier for Ackworth to make just one donation instead of 9 small ones?

    Would one donation also help with the paypal fees?

  15. I downloaded part 1...my fabric won`t be here for about 10-12 days...I am so anxious to start!!

    Donation made also...I only wish it was bigger, but I may be able to manage more later...thanks so much for doing this! It must be a lot of work!

  18. Thanks for organising this ,Jaqueline. I've just made a donation, but as I'm in the UK I'd like to send a cheque with the whole donation. It'll,hopefully, save Paypal charges and exchange rate fluctuations.
    Do you have the postal address and a contact name for the school?

  22. Thanks so much for doing this Jacqueline. I've done my donation, I just did one larger donation rather than several small ones to save on the paypal fees. I just figured I would donate something close to what I'd pay for one of your charts. Hope that's okay.

    Just curious, are you going to post the grand total of all the donations at some point?

  23. Gracias Jacqueline. He descargado la primera parte y he hecho una donación de diez dólares muy a pesar de Paypal, que no me dejaba :-)
    Os deseo a todas un gozoso bordado del sampler de Mary.

  24. Download and donation complete. Thank you very much for this present.

  25. Wish I would have thought of making one donation initially - I'm sure it would save PP fees - OK - I'll catch up and complete next download. Thanks again Jacqueline for the lovely Miss Mary - I can't wait to start but am afraid I am going to have to order linen - I am going by the LNS today but she usually only has very basic linens and not much in 36ct. I will pull my DMC so I have fresh new skeins. Thanks for all you do for us and the preservation at Ackworth. Melody

  27. I'm SO disappointed!!

    1--A donation was made to Ackworth (I decided to do just one to help keep paypal charges down)

    2--The chart is printed and is on the stand next to where I stitch.

    3--The threads are pulled and ready to go

    BUT--my linen hasn't arrived!! I am so disappointed--perhaps tomorrow!!

  28. I've just done a single payment for $25, otherwise my bank will charge me a conversion from sterling each time. I hope that's ok? I'm very happy to contribute to the work of Ackworth School in conserving these samplers and to thank you Jacqueline for producing such superb needlework items and jumping in with a terrific blog too :)

  29. Thanks Jacqueline for the opportunity you give us to embroider this beautiful sampler, I love it!
    I downloaded the chart and I made the donation. Like others, I also preferred to make a single payment.
    Best regards!

  30. Donation and download are complete and thank you so very much! I've a question though. I can't find a total stitch count (ex 235 x 235) and I'm using 30ct fabric. Where can I find this? Thanks!

  31. thank you Jacqueline for this beautiful sampler...
    I try the link on Gio's blog and I made the donation, stamp the cart and started....
    ciao Maria

  33. Well, Jacqueline, I need a new project like another hole in my head! Since I have no willpower, I'm joining everyone else, and I'm so excited! My donation and download both worked perfectly. Thank you for the opportunity and for making it so easy.

  34. Donation is complete, 25.00 for all. But, I have not been able to download the first chart. Is there a problem with the website?

    ReplyDelete
  35. I put down a full donation for the whole sampler, hope that is okay to do in just one lump rather than every time. I didn't realize that you wanted us to do a per part donation, so I just did the whole thing at once. Anyway, it saves me time. My question is do we download all the charts from here, and how will we konw when they are available? Thanks for the reply...

  36. Good Afternoon and hello from North Idaho, USA

    I found your beautiful site today and would love to join the SAL. My granddaughter Lillian will be stitching with me. I have been unable to down load the pattern because the band width has been exceeded. I will keep checking back and look forward very much to joining.
