"For several centuries the needlework sampler was an indispensable element in feminine education. The collection of such samplers in the Victoria and Albert Museum is one of the most comprehensive in existence. Many of the finest and most characteristic examples are illustrated in this volume which, it is hoped, will be of service to all who are interested in this subject, whether as collectors, as possessors of samplers handed down in their respective families, or as enthusiasts for fine needlework."Collection
