I’ve written before about how easily the motifs in Quaker Samplers can be adapted to needlepoint. Thanks to Kell Smurthwaite of Kincavel Krosses we have this absolutely charming Quaker Easter Egg.
The chart is on her blog (the thumbnail is pictured here) and is free for personal use.

And you still have time to stitch it for Easter.
