Sampler made at a Quaker school

British

Not on view

The Museum is fortunate to have this fine example of an English Quaker school sampler; American Quaker samplers are more numerous. Eliza Dymond Hull worked this sampler when she was nine years old. Eliza’s given name was Elizabeth and she was a fifth generation Quaker living in Uxbridge. She married John Fell from London in 1816 and died, perhaps in childbirth, in 1819.
