A New York sampler Originally stitched on dark green linsey-woolsey, our reproduction of Mary Jones's sampler is worked on our exclusive evenweave linen, dyed the same color. The striking contrast between the colors of the embroidery floss and the dark linen ground result in a dramatic finished piece, particularly in the region of the bright firmament complete with stars, sun and moon, above the childish figures of Adam and Eve. The verse is as follows:
Stitches used in the sampler are cross, cross stitch over one thread of linen, and stem (for the serpent). |
