[HNW] question

[Stephanie S Smith, Ph.D.]

I have decided to replicate a German sampler from around 1500-1550 that
is in the V&A museum.  It is done on linen fabric with silk thread.  The
stitches are cross stitch and long armed cross stitch.  Has anyone seen
this in person or found a pattern that would tell me which stitch to use
for each part of the sampler?  any help would be appreciated.

The Museum number of the work is T.114-1956.  If you put that in the
search box, it will bring up the work.  Or, you can go to this page:
