Cross-stitch sampler, a traditional piece of needlework historically created to showcase and practice various stitches and motifs, particularly as part of a young girl's education in sewing and embroidery. The phrase "I KNOW MY STITCHES" explicitly states that the sampler's purpose is to demonstrate the stitcher's proficiency in various cross-stitch techniques. The sampler features the alphabet and numbers, which were often included to allow young learners to practice letters and counting while developing needlework skills. The sampler displays a range of motifs, including a house, chickens, floral designs, and decorative borders, all worked in cross-stitch, illustrating different patterns and design elements.
