Mary Wigglesworth 1812 by Hands Across the Sea Samplers

Mary’s sampler has so much to please the eye and your needle. The sampler has grace and harmony, both in design and colour. The arcaded band at the top of the sampler can be found on many samplers from the 1700s. Mary may have stitched this band in a much earlier sampler worked when she was a child. - Hands Across the Sea Samplers

The model was stitched on a Zweigart linen overdyed to the shade of Crème Brulée by Tabby Cat Linens. The design area is 249 stitches (w) x 249 stitches (h). Our calculations have included a 3″ margin for finishing and framing.
