From the Designer:

This is a reproduction of Martje Klaassens Boerema’s sampler which she worked in Groningen in the 19th century. The sampler features a fantastic selection of motifs, including a very special windmill.

As the original sampler was worked on very uneven linen, I had to make some creative decisions to be able to chart this for you. Borders for instance did not line up because Martje worked some crosses over 1 (on thick linen threads). This meant that the total of crosses on the left and right would not be the same. It is therefor not a fully true reproduction sampler but it is loyal to the spirit of the original design.
