Practical Blackwork Words and Whimsies Samplers

Practical Blackwork Words and Whimsies Samplers

"...And as though Cambrick, Holland, Lawne, and the finest cloth that maye bee got any where for money, were not good enough, they have them wrought all over with silke worke..."

Philip Stubbes (on ruffs) "Anatomie of Abuses" 1583

"Portrait of a Lady" by Meilich, 1550s

Private Collection

     Samplers started as a way to record stitches and patterns, and developed into a decorative way to display one's talent with the needle. Our samplers are based on our historically-inspired designs, vintage samplers, and words that catch our imagination...

Words and Whimsies counted blackwork samplers
are printed double-sided on premium #65 cardstock or on premium heavy paper and comb-bound, according to size, and priced accordingly.
