Stephen & Carol Huber: 17th - 19th Century Needlework


Eunice Ladd Sanbornton, Belknap, NH, 
c. 1825 antique needlework sampler from Huber

EUNICE LADD
Sanbornton, Belknap, NH, c. 1825


Eunice Ladd her sampler wrought in her 12th year

The large central basket of flowers is typical of samplers worked at several schools throughout Belknap County. The use of a dark linsey-woolsey (fabric woven with a linen warp and wool weft) make the lettering and designs contrast with the background.

Eunice was born October 18, 1813, one of six children of John Ladd and Mehitable Gale. She married John Lawrence in 1831.

Silk on green linsey-woolsey; 15 ½" x 17 ¾" sight, 18 ½" x 20 ¾" framed.
