A blue monochrome alphabet sampler reproduction from England stitched by nine-year-old Elizabeth Laidman 1760. The verse makes this sampler so endearing. The Alphabet is missing the "J" because it was not a letter used back then. The verse in the sampler is from an old book by William Kenrick (a not very popular man) titled "The Whole Duty of a Woman" (published 1753)

8-1/4 inches (20.7cm) wide by 12-1/2 inches (31.6cm) high
Fabric Size: 14 inches (36cm) wide by 18 inches (47cm) high this includes 3 inch (8cm) allowance on all sides for finishing or framing
28ct Linen or 14ct Aida Cloth using blue cotton floss
