Sampler is unfinished; worked on linen, but in excellent condition. Border is a double row of the 'stawberry' motif, but the colors of the border are not consistent. Top row of the border uses dark greeen thread for the leaves and border, the right side has one row of light green/blue green, and the other a dark green, both rows of pattern. Colors of 'berries' are rose, pinnk yellow, and pale orange. There are only two rows of alphabets on the sampler.
Row 1 A-I #6 Susan Earl pattern, note that the "I" is probably part of the letter "M" and the person ran out of space on the material for the rest of the letter.
Row 2 M-V #6 Susan Earl pattern, note that the letter "V" is not complete and there is a loose thread from a stitch at the top of the letter. There are no other marks on the sampler.Dimensions
