From the Designer —
This colourful sampler made our hearts skip several beats when we first saw her, and we were beyond thrilled when we managed to acquire the sampler to share her with you.
The sampler was most probably stitched in the latter decades of the 1800s.
The verse so diligently stitched on the sampler was written by Thomas Moore, an Irish poet, satirist, composer, and political propagandist. He was a close friend of Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley.
“When time who steals our years away / Shall steal our pleasures too / The memory of the past will stay / And half our Joys renew / Then think no more of future gloom / These Joys will always last / For Hope will brighten days to come / And Memory guild the Past”
Stitch count: 385w x 281h
