NEW SCARLET LETTER CATHARINE SPANGLER 1799 American Sampler Cross Stitch Kit

CATHARINE SPANGLER 1799 An American Sampler. Cross Stitch Needlework Kit Vintage Gift. Perfect for your use or as a special gift! Historic Reproduction Samplers from The Scarlet letter. This is an American sampler displaying all of those features that make our indigenous samplers so appealing: a naive freshness, an unschooled layout, subtle color palette, and an exuberant and disproportionate pictorial scene with people as large as houses. Formerly in the collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the sampler was de-accessioned and, via The Scarlet Letter, is now in a private collection. It was made in Philadelphia and is related to Fig. 391 in Betty Ring’s Girlhood Embroidery. Package may have signs of storage wear (scratches, scuffs, creases, discoloration, etc). Kit only frame not included. Please see the images of the actual item above for a better idea of the condition. As we add new items every week! All measurements are approximate. Thank you for looking at this great Scarlett Letter Needlework!
