Jerusha Wheat- Redwork Sampler

This sampler started out as a free pattern but soon into the stitching I decided to create my own sampler as a tribute to my 6th great grandmother Jerusha Wheat. She was born in 1746 in Killingly, CT to Dr Salmon Wheat and Mercy Gale Wheat.

It is framed in a black wooden frame. Outside dimensions of frame 7" x 9".
