This kit was initially designed as a Scottish Millennium Sampler. However, now that the Millennium has passed, we've included some alternative phrases to replace the "2000" in the Centre Panel. These phrases include "History of a Nation", "Nemo Me Impune Lacessit" (Scotland's national motto), "Wha Daurs Meddle wi Me" (a rough translation into Scots of the said motto), and "My Country". Charts for all of these, as well as the original "2000", are now included in every kit so that the stitcher can choose which one he or she wishes to include. The kit is supplied as standard with Zweigart 27 count Linda evenweave 100% cotton in antique white, and when finished it has a stitch count of 163 x 259 and measures 12.1 x 19.2 inches (307 x 487 mm).  We don't really consider this kit to be suitable for stitching on Aida but we know that some people insist on Aida and only Aida, and so on special request we will supply 14 count antique white Aida (but be warned, it will be a lot more difficult to stitch!)  For stitchers who aren't used to evenweave, we've included a small piece of the material to practise on using the supplied gold-plated needle.
