Ann Reeve Sampler 

Ann Reeve finished her sampler at age 11, She stitched her sampler on a very fine 50 count linen with silk threads. Parts of the sampler are over one thread.

Ann made many mistakes and her motifs are not always exactly the same. A satin stitch border completes this lovely sampler.

    With all thy soul love God above and as thyself thy neighbour love. Be you to others kind and true as youd have others be to you, and neither do nor say to men whatere' you would not take again. As you expect that men should deal by you, so deal by them and give each men his due. Remember time will come when we must give account to God how we on earth did live.

The design was reproduced and stitched by Edna Medlin, on 35 count hand dyed linen.

The Stitch count is 281 by 344. On 35 count linen the design is 16 by 19 5/8 inches.
