from United States on 01/11/2022 - Lovely Sampler Such a delightful, unusual, and fun sampler. As an avid spinner, I find such almost childish delight in the history and form of this piece. It is very different from my primitive 18th Century samplers.:::but I just cannot resist stitching this piece! The figures are so wondrous. The chart so clearly put in booklet form and large enough for me to see easily. As usual…..123 Stitch so reliable and fast with their shipping.
