Wild Roses I found an antique sampler fragment in Pennsylvania a couple years ago. It wasn't dated or signed, but it had the same motif repeated 11 1/2 times. I used the same motif in this sampler and repeated it 21 times. Sarah Sedgewick is a name from my imagination. I've included an aphabet chart with this sampler so you can personalize yours. The stitch count is 95 wide by 435 high. Our model was stitched on 40 count Pearled Barley from Lakeside Linens. The following colors of Needlepoint Silk were used: 313, 998, 694, 205, 722, 208, 336, 844, 903. The frame is from Hog River. Price: $12.00
