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)
