Ivlie Godefroid booklet

Product description

This sampler "Ivlie Godefroid" caught my eye because of the beautiful colours. Upon closer inspection, the sampler turned out to be full of nice motifs. A landscape with a church, butterfly, shepherdess with all her creatures and the more traditional motifs such as the reclining deer in the garden, a ship, cradle, etc.
The sampler is not dated but was probably made in the mid-19th century in Belgium, France or Luxembourg.
I charted the sampler and used a number of motifs to make a pin drum, pin cushions and needle book. These are all in this beautifully designed book.

Sampler size: 249W x 226H cross stitch (32 x 29 cm on 16 thread linen)
The book contains the pattern of the sampler, all patterns and work descriptions of the pincushions and needle booklet.

The book is softcover, A4 format, in Dutch and English and has 32 pages. In addition, a handy separate thread card has been added with the legend.
