From the Designer -
- This is a set of three cross stitch patterns, based on extracts from a Bristol Orphanage sampler stitched by Ada Violet Haxby in 1885. The patterns could be made up into a pin drum and cushions as illustrated in the photos or as small pictures. The patterns are done in full cross stitch and can be stitched on linen or aida.
- Ada Violet sewed a sampler with many characteristics common to Bristol Orphanage Samplers, such as the rows of alphabets, numbers and borders, but she also included a squirrel! I have selected some of my favourite motifs from Ada Violet's sampler to make the pin drum and cushions.
