Stoplap van linnen waarin met veelkleurige zijde tien verschillende stoppen zijn gewerkt en de initialen LA, FGVW, EG en ANNO 1803 zijn geborduurd 1803

This 1803 sampler, embroidered by GHA, showcases a variety of colorful silk stitches on a linen ground. The piece features geometric patterns, including crosses and squares, as well as floral motifs. The inclusion of initials, the date, and the inscription "Stoplap van linnen" suggests that this sampler was a personal project, possibly created by a young woman as a demonstration of her needlework skills. The use of different stitches and colors highlights the maker's technical proficiency and creativity within the tradition of 19th-century embroidery.
