A reproduction of an American schoolgirl sampler worked in 1848 at Mrs. Cooke's School in New Hampshire. This charming piece reflects the elegance and discipline of mid-19th century needlework education. The original sampler, signed simply "LSC", features a beautifully detailed bird surrounded by lush floral, paired houses, and delicate wreath cartouche, all arranged within a classic border.
