This sewing set as inspired by the original Ann Spence 1801 Sampler. A few motifs of the sampler were used for the etui, the needlebook and the needleminder platform, while the strawberry scissors fob was tuned with the border of the sampler.
This set matches four wooden sewing accessories by Stitched Tales, available from Giulia Punti Antichi:
– decorated threadkeeper
– magnetic needleminder
– decorated button for the etui
– strawberry button for the scissors fob
