  1. HI, Will,
    I noticed the image on Google of Charlotte Haskells' New Gloucester sampler. We are planning a 2nd schoolgirl embroidery exhibition here at the Saco Museum for May 8-October 16, 2015: "Industry and Virtue Joined": Schoolgirl Needlework and Female Entrepreneurs of Northern New England. I was wondering if there was any chance that you might consider loaning her sampler for the exhibition? You could email me at lrounds@dyer.lib.me.us or learn more about our first exhibition, I My Needle Ply with Skill, on our website, www.dyerlibrarysacomuseum.org
    Thank you!
