Lidia Bauman 1831

Here, under a couple of other assorted tiny samplers, lies Lidia Bauman 1838 by Goode Huswife.  I stitched this pretty little sampler as a birth sampler to commemorate a close to me (at the time) colleague's son.

It was a quick stitch, which is why I added the other small pieces to the gift.  Sorry that I don't have any better photo of it.
If (or rather when) I stitch this sampler again, I am definitely picking a much more colorful linen!

Thanks for looking!
