Sarah Storrs 1795 - A Quaker Samplera Cross Stitch Pattern by Modern Folk Embroidery

This design was based on a Quaker sampler made by Sarah Storrs in 1795 from my personal collection. Sarah did not finish her work, so I used all of the elements of her original sampler, and added a few new ones to finish it as a new design. The pattern uses both crosses stitched over 2 threads and crosses stitched over 1. This design requires between 32 and 41 metres of 6-stranded floss when stitched with 2 pulled strands over 32 count linen.
