Last night my brother in The Netherlands sent me this picture of a sampler I embroidered in the late seventies and early eighties. When I moved to Taiwan I didn't take it with me. I was afraid the climate here, which is very humid, would ruin the very fine muslin and yarn.

Sampler like the one hanging in Bella's room. This one is dated 1879, but Bella's was done in 1865. It was very common for girls to do samplers like this as a way to learn needlepoint.

This is my first attempt at embroidery (apart from making it up as I go along stitching labels =D )
I am loving learning all the stitches, thanks BariJ!
