Samplers The dimensions of the four handdecorated towels people's opinions, because the elaborateembroidery became less by using either petit-point or cross stitch, or http://www.greencastlemuseum.org/Special_Exhibits/samplers.htm
Extractions: Kathy Barrick-Dieter, Hagerstown, Maryland. Samplers The counted stitch sampler collection includes pieces from the early 1800's up to 1886 with one undated Swedish sampler that probably dates from the mid to late 1700's. Also on exhibit are four Pennsylvania German hand-decorated towels. Decorated towels were worked by the Pennsylvania German population from 1735 to 1850 and reached the peak of their popularity between 1820 and 1850. Primarily made by young, unmarried women, decorated towels were not practice pieces as were samplers, but were display pieces that were made to add beauty to a home. These finely stitched linen panels were hung on the backs of bedroom doors. The dimensions of the four hand-decorated towels are 18" x 60", 16 3/4" x 36", 14 1/2" x 64", 17" x 40". Kathy Barrick-Dieter began collecting antique samplers in the early 1990's. Her love of samplers dates back ten years earlier when she began stitching antique reproduction samplers. In 1997, Kathy began designing samplers and publishing her designs under the name of "Barrick Samplers" through which she markets her charted reproduction sampler designs. She has about 65 designs published to date, all with an antique look. Her talents have also been featured in "Early American Life" formerly known as "Early American Homes". Kathy lives in Hagerstown, Maryland with her husband, Art, and her daughter, Liz, who also recently began designing samplers.
