Item Details

Description

Title: ABIGAIL WEBSTER SAMPLER C.1800

Materials: Silk on linen

Size: 30 1/4" x 20" framed.

Additional Information: A young New England girl named Abigail Webster worked this beautifully wrought sampler but apparently did not quite finished it. Abigail died on September 1, 1802 and her seven year old brother died the next day. Someone stitched a memorial verse at the bottom in memory of Abigail and her brother. Even with her early demise she left something delightful for us to enjoy. Abigail surrounded this very ambitious sampler with an unusual solidly stitched flowering border with a black background.
