We are so excited to recreate a well-used and tattered watch pocket that no doubt held a lady's watch from bygone days. A ribbon tab on the back of the antique likely was intended to be used to hang the stitched pocket from a display book. We did examine the inside of the antique, revealing some fading of the blue-green floss. Perhaps the maker depicted her home or school as well as beloved pets.
Although we have been unable to identify our sampler maker, she definitely knew her geography. Harriet accurately listed the states and territories of the date she stitched in her sampler. Even though the antique sampler is in a tattered state, we are especially happy to preserve Harriet's legacy by recreating her sampler to be enjoyed today.
In adapting this sampler to be stitched over one and two threads of linen - instead of 1, 2, 3, and 4 as stitched by Mary - we endeavored to remain true to her composition while creating a more "stitchable" sampler. While the antique is framed, we decided to hemstitch our sampler. We are fortunate that Mary included her age, middle initial and the date she stitched her sampler.
