Kell's Eden

Kell's Eden is the latest Long Dog Sampler to roll off

the press and must surely please not only A&E fans

but also lovers of spot sampler motifs and,

of course, the masochists amongst you who just

crave something big to get your needles into.

 

Fancy a game of Snakes & Appils?

 

It's the second "Kell's" sampler and makes an excellent

companion piece for Kell's Kritters which was

released several years ago now.

 

In all it's glory

 

The framework was adapted from the highly decorated

opening words of St Matthew's Gospel in the

Book of Kells which is possibly the richest,

most copiously illustrated manuscript version of the

four Gospels in the Celto-Saxo style that still survives.

It is currently housed in the Old Library of

Trinity College, Dublin.

 

 

The design measures 276 x 370 stitches and

is priced at £16.20.
