PRE-ORDER: Charts expected in store early September 2025.
Two samplers with design and color similarities presented in one booklet. Chances are that neither girl knew the other, nor had a shared teacher. Their samplers were stitched seven years apart. Fortunately, Elizabeth included the date, her age and her school— making her identification possible. Read what Michele uncovered about her life inside this booklet. Sarah, on the other hand, provided only the year that she stitched her sampler. Sarah dabbled a bit in specialty stitches and we hope you will enjoy recreating them
