This is Lori's interpretation of an original sampler found at the Racine Heritage Museum.
Stitched on 36 count "Parchment" linen by Weeks Dye Works, the stitch count is 221 X 223 and uses DMC threads throughout. Lori used one strand over two linen threads for all but the name, date and age of dear Elizabeth which is over one thread.
DMC: 167, 520, 642, 644, 844, 924, 934, 975, 3371, 3721, 3773, 3781.
