SPB - 1765
This very balanced sampler is from North Holland. SPB was very proud of the fact that she was 10 1/2 years old as she had to stitch that "1/2" on her sampler. The center motif depicts Jesus with the woman at the well and we have the grape carriers Joshua and Caleb, as well as Adam and Eve
as seen so often on Dutch samplers. Everything is stitched in cross stitch except the roof of the church, which is worked in chain stitch. The original is in the West Fries Museum in Hoorn, the Netherlands.
