That sampler is beautiful Hannah :)
I love the historical samplers. Would be nice to think that in 100 years someone will look at our sewing and appreciate it like we appreciate things like ancient tapestries and such-like.

I'd love to be able to help restore old tapestries and things - I wonder how you get into a job like that ???
