Mary Barres Sampler by Stacy Nash Primitives Primrose Cottage Weeks Dye Works: GrasshopperIt's amazing that Mary was 11 years old when she did this sampler in 1829. I'm thinking she must have loved stitching, because this is BIG and contains so many beautiful motifs. Such a masterpiece to recreate for your own wall!
