Wonderful embroidery. Mounted on wood---glass front---original. There are no tears or damage to the artwork---some blur to a few of the words---as shown in images, but colors and designs have held up remarkably well. Sampler held firmly to wood----measures 15 1/2 x 21 inches. With frame measures 20 x 26 inches. Inscribed: JESUS CAN MAKE A DYING BED FEEL SOFT AS DOWNY PILLOWS ARE---WHILE ON HIS BREASTXXLEAN MY HEAD AND BREATHE MY LIFE OUT SWEETLY THERE. Mariah Emley New Egypt 1829. Beautiful historical artwork. Birds, a house, trees and various intricate sewing.  As viewed through the front glass, there appears to be slight  ruffling in the embroidery, suggesting looseness. It thus seems not glued or nailed, but rather drawn, as in an oil painting, and nailed against a wood background.  We will leave intact---as is. view our other auctions on eBay at antiquessideshow Buyer pays shipping and insurance charges Payment       I accept the following forms of payment: PayPal Money Order Personal CheckShipping & Handling $0.00 USPS First-Class Mail® Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image Click to view supersized image    FREE image hosting (includingsupersized) with Vendio Sales Manager.    Listing automation and FREE scheduled listings by Vendio.
