Happy stitChing

-

For many years, young girls were expected to produce needlework samplers. These were designed to demonstrat­e their sewing skills. Most included alphabets, motifs, decorative borders and often the name and date of the embroidere­r. This ‘Merry Christmas’ sampler from the Historical Sampler Company is worked in simple cross stitch following a chart. It comes as a kit with fabric, threads and chart. The frame is not included.
