My book is here.
Once again, this is a beautiful publication – well worth the cost ($95) – I am so glad I bought it. For lovers of samplers, this is a fantastic reference. Big clear pictures and wonderful narrative on the composition and construction of the samplers. Very differnt to the Ackworth book, in that the text focusses on the sampler and not the stitcher.
I wont post piccies because the ones on the needleprint website are far better than any I can take!
You may not see me for a while….I’m off to devour it.
*bliss*
I’m getting mine on Saturday – Janine rang me when they were delivered and told me I had to have one. Can’t wait to see mine. I’ve liked all their texts, they do a wonderful job researching and presenting the information.
Looks like a real treasure for those who love historical samplers
You’ll just have to remember to wear a bib when you read to stop the drool dropping on the pages ;P
Enjoy
