This very nice SAMPLER was done in the late 19th century on black polished cotton with I believe, silk thread and then made into a 16" square pillow which feels as though it is padded with down. The house is done in shades of tan and brown with a red chimney. Trees in shades of green and a brown fence beside the house. The motto in red, "THE BLESSING OF THE HOUSE IS CONTENTMENT AND ITS GLORY IS HOSPITALITY". Double border is gold and there is a green chain stitching around the entire edge of the pillow....all very nicely done. The 2 lower corners have worn though the black and some of the sampler stitching has worn away in certain areas, but overall considering age and its intended use, I would say the condition is very good.
