Sampler.Sampler. Anticamente, non esistevano manuali di cucito e di lavori femminili. E così le donne per trasmettersi dei campionari di punti di madre in figlia, li cucivano su pezzi di stoffa e poi man mano ne aggiungevano degli altri. In Francia furono chiamati marquoirs, in Inghilterra samplers, in Italia imparaticci, anche se questo termine è riduttivo e improprio, in quanto, una volta terminati, questi campionari erano ritenuti degni di diventare dei cuscini o dei quadri. Nei samplers si possono trovare alfabeti, nomi, date, frasi, proverbi, simboli..tutto ciò che la fantasia e i desideri della ricamatrice volevano trasmettere in un dato momento!
Il più antico sampler esistente si trova presso il Victoria and Albert Museum di Londra ed è datato 1598. Apparteneva a Jane Bostok.

patch d'une cliente; le quilting améliore nettement le patch, fais vibrer le fond beige et met en valeur les blocs piécés; les plumes dans les bordures encadre bien le tout.
This water sampler is lowered into the ocean and then the sampling bottles around the outside are capped one at a time to collect water samples as the apparatus is pulled slowly upward through the water column.

Samplers were first made in the 1400s or 1500s as a way of remembering different types of stitches or patterns. Over time they evolved into pieces of work made by young girls, proving their knowledge and patience.
The Herbert has over 60 samplers in its collection. With volunteers from NADFAS we have recently completed a project to improve their storage and to make them more accessible. You can see some of the samplers on display at the Herbert in the History Gallery, Connected and in What's in Store.
This is a sampler worked by Elizabeth Newsome aged 10 in 1809. Elizabeth later became Mrs Lomas and was the sister of Samuel Newsome, Mayor of Coventry in 1853. We have three of Elizabeth's samplers in the Herbert's collection, you can see the others here and here.

Religion should our thoughts engage animate our youthful bloom,
Twill fit us for declining age and for the awful tomb

This quilt is made with blocks from the Quilt Block Exchange. I quilted this as a piece to bring to quilt shops for longarm quiltling referrals.

I deliberately went with lower contrast fabrics with this block. I have a lot of very dark, and a couple of very light, blocks. I need some middle ground to help keep the eye moving over the (eventual) quilt top.
Both prints are Walmart fabrics, and I'm still having some fun playing with fussy-cutting. I've determined that I would NEVER do it for a large quilt, but one off/sampler blocks, I'm okay with fussy-cutting.
This is a sampler worked by Catherine Hill, aged 8 in 1859.
The sampler was completed 27th May 1859 and tells us that she went to the National School in Stoke Green, Coventry. The school was established in 1833 and the 1840 building still stands today.

Border Sampler. Did these ten years ago.
These are really samples of borders. Instead of using the borders for parts of other cross stitch, I stitched the whole page! There are three pages of this book I did.
I am a sucker for samplers alpha or borders or anything sample like. I also like shadow cross stitch.
