Description
Samplers were traditionally used to teach young girls a variety of skills: darning samplers improved mending skills, alphabet samplers helped with literacy, and band and spot motif samplers helped record the stitches they had learned. This work uses a historical sampler collection as the inspiration for over 30 antique style cross stitch designs.
