This is one of the most graphic, folksy samplers we have seen. It has all the bells and whistles one can imagine.
At the top is a vivid sky with a full burst sun and flying birds. The rest is comprised of a center-hall brick
house with a fenced yard, numerous trees, animals, three ladies, two children and a colorfully dressed jester.
It is inscribed at the bottom right: 1793/ Elizabeth Townsend.
