This is a framed piece of the "Black Vintage Sampler" cross stitch pattern

The history of this design is a popular choice for "Black Sampler November," a community event where stitchers create samplers using only black thread.

It features various motifs in excellent detail, including a fireplace, furniture, animals, and decorative borders.

The text stitched into the sampler reads, "EVENINGS COME AND CHASE AWAY THE TOILS AND TROUBLES OF THE DAY."

The piece is displayed in most likely its original black frame, which can be easily hung.

This product is a stunning antique sampler measuring 10.75”wide by 12.75” tall.

The intricate design and hand-stitched details create a beautiful piece of history that would make a unique and charming addition to any collection or home decor. The black color adds a touch of elegance and sophistication, making it a standout piece and versatile with any design.

There is no date or signature stitched into this artwork… the back of the frame has not been removed. Glass is in great shape and nicely protects and holds the fabric flat. Overall, an excellent display of a hard to find item.
