Embroidery Sampler in Blue and Pink christmas embroidery the sea lily linen versionThis sampler is quite unusual as it uses only embroidery stitches. No alphabets or motifs. it is the only like it I have ever come across. it dates late 1800s early 1900s. It is such a happy sampler. It is in great condition, most likely a schoolgirl exercise in various embroidery stitches. The sampler came from England. There are no makers marks. Stitched with cotton on a fine linen base and hemmed on all sides. it is quite small and measures only 8.
