샘플러
1935-1942
This charming image captures a traditional needlework sampler, originally stitched by Uree C. Fell in 1846 and documented by Elmer G. Anderson in the mid-20th century. The fabric is filled with a whimsical garden of cross-stitched flowers, potted plants, and birds, all enclosed by a delicate floral border. Samplers like this were historically created by young girls to practice their sewing skills and record their names. The note at the bottom indicates this is a reproduction at three-quarters size, preserving a fragile piece of domestic history.
