Stitched by Sarah Low at the age of twelve, the message on her sampler tells us she was taught at an early age not to waste her time.

The sampler is stitched in soft blues, greens, and golds with cross and Algerian eye stitches.

The sampler was reproduced and stitched by Carol Sessoms on 29 count Glenshee with silk threads.

The Stitch count is 93 by 99. On 29 count linen, the design size is 6 1/2 by 6 3/4 inches.
