Scarlet Letter Adam and Eve Cross Stitch

And All Was For An Appil - Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$29.00 $2725

A derivative 17th-century canvas work picture. The Adam and Eve legend was a more popular theme on samplers after the early eighteenth century so this example is quite unusual. The pair are not often seen on earlier needleworks, even though most illustrated bibles of the sixteenth and seventeenth... Read more

Fanny Peachey Circa 1810 - Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$15.00 $1409

Note from the designer: "This naive Adam and Eve sampler might have been made in Maryland around 1810. At first I believed that the sampler was either English or Irish, judging by the unusual surname, until, in my research, I came upon the gravestone of a Fanny H. Peachey, born 24 November 1799,...

Frances Marshall 1838 - Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$14.00 $1315

What makes this early Victorian English sampler so intriguing are the wonderfully naive figures of Adam, Eve and St. Michael flanking the Tree of Life. St. Michael's sword is drawn to slay the serpent, but he hardly looks formidable with his large feet and doughy body. Playskool-like Adam and Eve... Read more

Ann Whittaker 1790 - Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$29.00 Sale $2406

Note from the designer - "ANN WHITTAKER created an almost comically theatrical sampler depicting Adam and Eve, angels, pious verses, and elaborate meandering vines beneath dramatic multi-colored draperies and tassels.

Note from the designer - "So many unusual and enigmatic features were left by Ann Carbutt on her sampler, made when she was sixteen years old, very likely in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The surname "Carbutt" is first found in Cheshire after the... Read more

Ann Hall 1812 - Christian Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$15.00 Sale $1244

Note from the designer - "This wonderful English sampler has to be an original inspired composition by a very clever young girl with a singular artistic vision! Potbellied cherubs fly trumpeting alongside a doughy, asexual Adam and Eve, beneath whom perch an enormous plumed Bird of Paradise on a... Read more

Ann Jones 1776 - Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$26.00 $2443

In the upper register of this finely stitched English sampler there is featured an unusual vignette of Adam and Eve beneath the tree of life (with a menacing black faced serpent) flanked by mirror image brick cottages, followed by a pious verse:

Praise the Lord enthron'd on high

Catharine Metcalf 1836 English Pictorial

by Scarlet Letter

$21.00 Sale $1742

There is so much going on in this fascinating English sampler that it's hard to know where to begin looking. Apart from the somewhat conventional Adam and Eve at the top center, adorable flying cherubs flank them and the apple tree, bearing gold rings and sprays of flowers. The verse is as... Read more

IAMEK 1801 - Cross Stitch Pattern

by Scarlet Letter

$8.00 $751

Note from the designer: "German and Dutch samplers are known for their iconography, especially the symbolic religious motifs. This piece, reproduced from the collection of the Allentown Art Museum in Allentown, Pennsylvania, portrays many of these motifs. Adam and Eve, in particular, are often... Read more
