“Beautiful images of the needlework and patterns inspired by the
sampler, along with wonderful vignettes of culture and history from
the time period.” —Sassy Jacks Stitchery Authors Susan Greening
Davis and Sally Criswell found Sibbel’s sampler in Belgium, fell in
love with it and brought it to America. Through their research, they
have opened a window for us to see what life for Sibbel was like
growing up in the 1700s, learning needlework techniques and coming to
love stitching. Within these pages is an interpretation of Sibbel’s
young life in a Netherlands charity home. As Sibbel creates the motifs
in her sampler and learns special joining stitches, you are invited to
stitch along. What you will have created is a stunning showpiece. In
the project pages, you can create many of the items Sibbel would have
made, such as her leather pincushion or the gorgeous stitching weight
used to hold her sampler in place. So collect your favorite stitching
tools, find your most comfortable chair and take a journey with
Sibbel.
