It is with great pleasure we are announcing a new division
of The Sampler Guild-Sampler
Guild Research.
For quite a while there have been three separate avenues
of research carried out by Ruth Taylor - Crows Feet Stitching, Jacob de Graaf
– Modern Folk Embroidery and Linda Hadden – The Sampler Guild.We realized that joining forces and sharing the information
and knowledge we each have, it all started to make sense.During
the last six months there has been a vast amount of research and discussion
around a sampler motif that we have come to know as Solomon’s Porch.
The results of our combined efforts have culminated in
a preliminary paper, available on The Sampler Guild website under the heading
of Research Papers.
All TSG members will receive a copy of the paper.It will also be sent out to the sampler world during the
next few days.
Please note that there is still much research to undertake
on this subject.We have only just scratched the surface
and have already started a second paper with more of our findings.
In addition to this, there is also a great deal of research
being undertaken into other sampler motifs and genres.There
will be other papers published in due course.
If you have problems downloading
this PDF document, please do not hesitate to email Linda at linda@thesamplerguild.co.uk
and request that a copy be sent to you.
