Jane Greenoff uses her own historical sampler collection as the inspiration for more than 30 unique antique-style cross stitch designs - so that you can begin a collection of your very own.

Each project chapter is inspired by a popular sampler style. Samplers were traditionally used to teach young girls a variety of skills: darning samplers improved mending skills, while alphabet samplers helped with literacy and samplers with improving mottoes instilled morality.

Many of the superb designs are complemented by additional counted thread stitches to encourage you to extend your stitching repertoire, including drawn and pulled thread techniques.
