S. T. ca. 1920

"S. T." had the choice between many woolen colours to stitch her sampler. She "played" with them, changing the colours in the alphabets in rhythm.

She elaborately created her borders and corner motifs. She put her initials into the flower wreath.

Presumably, the sampler is from the period around 1920, as it contains an alphabet in an old German handwriting.

"S. T. ca. 1920" belongs to the large collection of school samplers by Margit Guerrein, Berlin, Germany.
