| Silent Stitches tm
The very first time I saw an antique sampler, I felt as if I could hear it
speak. I could almost feel the presence of the young girl who
stitched the sampler. I watched her in my mind as she carefully
placed each of the stitches on her homespun linen.
As I gave it further thought, I realized
that the sampler was in a sense, speaking to me. It was speaking volumes
without ever saying a word. The "Silent Stitches" tm
were threads of the
past woven and suspended in time waiting for someone to listen. Samplers
are so much more than needlework. Each is a legacy of the stitcher which lives on to tell a story and remind us of a
life & time over a century ago.

.... with so much to say
to those who are listening.
Thank you for allowing
us to share our love of needlework with you.
