Mary Kennedy's charming schoolgirl sampler is just one of the lovely samplers that have been reproduced for the counted cross stitch enthusiast by the Elsa Williams Williamsburg collection. The original sampler is shown in the book In the Neatest Manner: The Making of the Virginia Sampler Tradition by Kimberly Smith Ivey.  You'll work on a 28 ct linen in cotton flosses to display this beautiful Lynchburg Virginia sampler, which is part of a very rare collection of Southern Samplers in the Williamsburg Foundation's possession. This treasure arrived in overly shopworn packaging which has been replaced to keep pristine and ready to work.
