This is a very graceful and finely stitched sampler, an unusual combination for the late date. The original sampler, probably of English origin, was worked on a thread count of approximately 52 and measures 13-1/4"x12. However the sampler can be completed on your choice of thread counts.

Stitched using cross, straight and satin.

For Intermediate level needleworkers.
