~ New {OLD} Project in the Works ~

 
 
 
 
 Hello Friends & Folk!

I'm excited to tell you that I am reproducing a few antique samplers 
that I have in my personal collection ~

Starting with this one, 
that I'm naming
"Sarah M. Gould 1867"

...Sarah stitched a comical sentence in this sampler, 
perhaps about a sister or friend... ??
it is a funny quip that I can't wait to share with you!!!

I'm choosing my threads, 
and am on the search for some very nubby linen that will replicate 
the wonky-weave of the ground cloth on the original sampler.
