This linen sampler, created by G. Glas around 1889, showcases a traditional needlework technique. The piece features a complete alphabet and numbers, meticulously stitched in red thread on a white linen background. The sampler's neat and precise stitches demonstrate the skill and patience of the maker. These samplers served as instructional tools for learning embroidery, and they also often represented personal achievements and creative expression.
