There are two chart sets included for this beautiful sampler… one with the antique reproduction colors as seen in the photo of the antique and one on cream as seen in The Needleworker magazine in the late 90s. You may choose which color palate you prefer!
An absolutely gorgeous sampler!!
Thank you Claudia for bringing her back to us!!
The verse at the top, which is very hard to read, is a hymn written by Philip Doddridge.
Hannah stitched it as follows:
Beset with snares on every hand,
In life’s uncertain path I stand:
Father divine! defuse Thy light,
To guide my doubtful footsteps right.
Engage this frail and wavering heart
to wisely choose the better part;
To scorn the trifles of the day,
For joys that never fade away.
Then let the wildest storms arise;
let tempests mingle earth and skies:
No fatal shipwreak shall I fear,
But all my treasures with me bear.
If Thou, my Father still be nigh,
Cheerful live, and peaceful die:
Secure, when mortal comforts fee,
To find ten thousand worlds in Thee.
