Designer: Scarlet Letter
Item: SCTL-045
Type: Cross Stitch Patterns

Amelia Boyce's pictorial sampler demonstrates two popular art forms of the early 19th century manifested in the sampler mode: the image of an architectural engraving, and the influence of Berlin patterns in the naturalistic (rather than nave or stylized) floral patterns. A widely mixed floral meandering border surrounds a brief verse and scenic panel over a large cathedral, flanked by mammoth trees, one with an oversize parrot perched in the branches. The verse from Proverbs 3, verse 17, is especially lovely:

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace

On 35 count linen the finished sampler will measure approximately 17" x 19-1/4". Stitches used are cross over one and two threads of linen, and back stitch. The original sampler is ion the collection of the Valentine Museum in Richmond, Virginia.

Reviews From Customers Who Purchased This Item

from United Kingdom on 10/25/2023 - One for the furure
I have the chart already and will be stitching this so long as nothing more brilliant comes along to distract me.Love samplers with a religious verse added...I started doing similar work many years ago and it looks like a fairly easy pattern to follow.

Note from the designer - "Samplers depicting children - particularly such large children - are uncommon. Not only the children make this an outstanding sampler, but also the multi-floral border, the charming verse, the scene at the top with its menagerie of creatures, and the beautiful naturalistic rose at the center. The original sampler is English and was worked on a very fine tiffany."
