Presenting the kit for the BIG AWESOME PROJECT (the BAP!)
Charlotte Warrington 1838 is a reproduction sampler from the studio of NeedleWork Press, of very generous proportions. She features a most unusual red brick house, along with goats, geese, peacocks, cats, dogs and sheep. You’ll also find Adam and Eve, a couple courting by the gate, and beautiful plants, flowers and trees to keep the stitching interesting.
The verse has been charted for over one and over two, so you choose:
Over one on linen: My Dear while you your Needle work attend, Oh seek the council of a faithful friend. O strive the inward ornament to gain, Or all your other work will prove in vain. This I have done to let you see, What care my Parents took of me. With care and pains I have this wrought, And finish'd with a virtuous thought. Charlotte Warrington's Work 1838.
Over two on linen: With care and pain I have This wrought and finish'd with a virtuous thought. Charlotte Warrington's work 1838.
