I will look more closely next time I see it and will consider your suggestions. <br /><br />Kathy, Thank you for the comment.

If it hasn't been, I hope you will consider consulting a needlework specialist who could advise you on what to do with your sampler. It is my cousin's dream to "find" a piece of needlework done by one of our ancestors. Alas, none found yet! How lucky you are to have this.nalexmanzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14867333562542580561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2932000737012796011.post-60534620222830309392010-06-30T09:10:57.546-04:002010-06-30T09:10:57.546-04:00WOW!
