Saving Helen

I love the colors of this lovely Spanish Sampler. They evoke that Mediterranean vibe, fresh and happy.Bernarda Dedicated this sampler to Dona Isabel Camacho in 1838.The text reads as follows:Lo Izo (a derivation (or a simple spelling mistake) of “lo hizo” meaning "Made by")Bernarda Bellon Dedicado A. (Bernarda Bellon dedicated to)Dona Isabel Camacho - then the letters all are clumped together and it took a bit to tease the meaning apart: ENEL ANO DE 1838 from Spanish: IN THE YEAR 1838 however the word ENE alone translated means Jan the abbreviation for January (Enero) so either could be the case.You can read more here: https://thewishingthorn.com/blogs/samplings/the-sampler-of-bernarda-bellon-1838

This is the original Crowns and Flowers Sampler, which I’ve tentatively dated to 1820s/1830s - pop over to my blog on bluecoppice.com for more info! 👑🌸🐝 . It was stitched over two in a mix of silk, cotton and metallics on an evenweave linen - I found Zweigart 36ct linen in Cream was a very close modern match in size and colour. While I love working with silks, here in the UK they are very expensive and it can be difficult to track them down. However, the colours from DMC six-stranded cotton range matched the originals amazingly well! So I charted this design for DMC but if you wanted to use silks, there are many conversion charts online covering all the major brands 💐 .
