Isabel Redie

Love looking at other customers photos of their finished projects from "Scarlet Letter" and couldn't resist sending in photos of one of mine.

I taught myself in "84" and entered my first competition shortly after and have been winning ribbons every since.

I am sending photos of my "Isabel Redie" Sampler. Normally, I am drawn to samplers that are more of a challenge but I fell in love with this sampler the moment I saw it. It won Best of Show in every competition it was entered in and in "2004", Rockome Gardens added a special category called "Best of the Best" for it's 20 year anniversary. All first place and best of show winners from the 20 years were invited to bring their winners back to compete for the ultimate of awards and I am very proud to say, my sampler took that award.

I love watching for new samplers and books from "Scarlet Letter" and love the photos of the kitties and pets. I am an animal lover as well.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the photos.

I thought that you might be interested in seeing a picture of my version of the IRS sampler of which I bought the pattern from you. I personalized it with my own initials, and exchanged some of the alphabet with my family name, of German Heritage. I recently entered it at the county fair, and won a blue ribbon, a sweepstakes prize, and it was recommended to go to the state fair. I have also shared the name of your website with the embroidery group that I belong to on facebook, where some of the members have asked where I got it. Thank you for such wonderful patterns.

Dear Scarlet Letter,

I am proud to announce that my sampler "Sara Tatum", from 1800, a Quaker piece recently won every prize possible in our Weld County Fair. Weld County is the largest County in Colorado. I entered the sampler on a whim, at the last minute. It won a blue ribbon for the sampler category, champion over all stitchery, grand champion over the open class division, (cakes, flowers, photography, leather work, afghans, quilts, paintings etc. etc. ) and "Champion of Champions" over all fair entries. Was I ever surprised and thrilled. I am still grinning. The judge said the work was "absolutely exquisite". Just thought you would want to know!
