The Book of Samplers
By Marguerite Fawdry and Deborah Brown
Published by St. Martin's Press, New York
Copyright 1980
The sampler is one of the most charming traditional forms of embroidery, first made as a record of stitches and later as a picture to be framed and proudly displayed by its maker. This book, lavishly illustrated in color and monochrome, is the first work to look at samplers both historically and practically. Each historical chapter is followed by a practical section explaining with all the necessary diagrams the stitches and motifs found on the samplers. A large modern sampler, specially designed and worked for this book is shown at the end, and is accompanied by full directions on how to work it" - Adapted from jacket
