A little band sampler

and I do mean little. 

This is just 23 by 32 stitches, and that includes the edge. Do you think those middle figures look like ducks.  I like ducks so I think that is what I will consider them. I don't have to do anything about framing this, the  edge is the frame and the moment it was finished it was on the wall.

Well, it was on The Needlewoman's wall.

I am hoping the next update will see me working of the fill stitches. There is still a mirror over the fireplace to do but as that is to be in metallic thread and some of the dress fill is also metallic I think I will leave it till later.
