Sampler afghan, blocks designed by Polly Plum.

This was at the relatively new Deschutes brew pub in Portland. We got a sampler tray which was a real treat. I think they are the best brewery in America-- bar none. There is a depth and richness to every one of their beers that no other brewery can match.

This is a sampler worked by Ann Bray aged 10. It was finished 29th March 1826.

 

The text reads

Go like your heavenly Father feed the poor

And carry comfort to the sick mans door

 

Think of your heavenly Fathers love to you

And imitate his love in all you do

Mercy shall then your early steps attend

And from the snares of Death your paths defend.

 

The first verse finishes

Pity the widow, be the orphan's friend

And if you cannot give them, freely lend

The hymn continues

For you the poor man's prayers shall reach heaven

And blessings more than you can ask be given

And when the righteous Judge from heaven descends

Before the world he'll own you for his friends.

SH.1960.9

 

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.

Another sampler I made up, 49 squares each with a different stitch. 18cm (7.25 inches) sqaure, done on 28ct linen.

This is a sampler worked by Mary Tyler. It was finished 30th December 1810.

 

The text reads

1

O Lord divine how sweet thou art

When I shall find my willing heart

All taken up by thee

I thirst I faint I die to prove

2

O that I could for ever sit

With Mary at the masters feet

by this my happy choice

My only care delight and bliss

My joy my heaven on earth be this

To hear the the bridegrooms voice

3

O that I could with favour'd John

Rest me ? weary head upon

the dear Redeemers breast

From care and ? sorrow free

Give me O Lord to find in thee

my everlasting rest

 

The words for this hymn were written by Charles Wesley and published in his Hymns and Sac­red Po­ems, vol­ume I in 1749.

This is a sampler worked by Esther Shuffle aged 11 years and completed on 13th April 1848.

 

The text reads

'Next unto God dear parents, I address

myself to you, in humble thankfulness

for all your care and charge on me bestow'd

and means of learning unto me allow'd.'

 

This verse was popular in lessons and continues

'Go on, I pray, and let me still pursue

Those golden arts the vulgar never knew.'

 

Elizabeth Emery's sampler has similar text to this one.

This is a sampler worked by Annie Davies aged 11 years in 1882. It is not always possible to tell where the samplers in the collection are from, and often the donor's themselves don't know. However the donor of this sampler was the neice of Annie and told us she was born and lived in Coventry.

The text reads

The loss of time is much, the loss of truth is more;

the loss of Christ is such that no-one can restore.

 

Many samplers worked by girls in the 1800s were mounted and hung in their homes. Round the edge of this work you can see the rust holes where nails pinned it to a board or stretcher for display.

Cream of Corn soup, Narra Salad, Pulled pork sandwich, steamed mussel, etc.

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.

There is a class on Creativebug for this sampler.

Received blocks in my choice of colors blue green yellow on black ( center top is my tester)

Pierogies, stuffed cabbage, potato pancake, kielbasa, sauerkraut. Overall, it was just ok, not something we'd get again.

I finally got my sampler in the mail on Thursday and I immediately opened it up and got to stitching. This is my first time working on a crewel embroidery project and I LOVE IT.

We handed out a lot of little tastes.

A scan from a old coppy of Future Music magazine..year was 2000

Some of the information printed regarding the samplers is incorrect too! And it also misses a few models like the first version of the 3200 and various versions of the S-1000/3000 family.

 

I wanted an Akai so bad at the time..never could afford one..always used to look at that page lol

My First Akai was a S2800 with 2Meg of ram! which I upgraded to a massive total of 10 if I can remeber right lol

Primitive Needle - Hallow Sampler

Found a cute pendant frame at Michael's, removed one of the panes of plastic inside (you're supposed to sandwich a picture in there) and wrapped the other in fabric with some of my favourite stitches right now. From the top: up and down button stitch, double straight stitch, thorn stitch, open blanket stitch and tiny chain stitch. Chain stitches are something I need to work on. Over long distances they always look overstretched and sad. To the doodle cloth!
