An interesting little giveaway this week is a booklet produced by the Cohasset Historical Society which documents 17 samplers and panels in their collection dating from the 1780s. The example above was stitched with darning patterns by Maria Meyn in Enkhuysen (a seaport on the former Zuyder Zee in the Netherlands) in August 1787.
If you would like to enter the draw, then simply click on the flying angel below to enter and I'll announce a winner next week, 2 December 2013. Good Luck!
