Antique sampler "Hélène Bonnefond"

Antique sampler: "Hélène Bonnefond"
REPRODUCTION SAMPLER CHARTED BY MURIEL BERCEVILLE - COUNTED CROSS STITCH 

Muriel Berceville describes her work:

"Look for the personal details that have been added to this sampler, quite representative of a typical stitching exercise young girls would stitch in the mid 19th century. When charting this design, I tried to match the original colors and stay as close as possible to the original composition though the work of time makes it quite challenging."

A faithful reproduction of an antique alphabet, charted by Muriel Berceville.
