I wish I’d recorded the home address, because 4.pb seems to be some low class commentary blog, and I couldn’t find any such thing as an embroidery sampler when I went back and searched.
Anyway, (and I also have no date on this, subsequently) this image does show beautifully the blending of Elizabethan style colours
Edit : ZabaCorporation was kind enough to point out the origin of the image. It is from the "History of Embroidery" blog at http://historyofembroidery.blogspot.com/
The "Samplers" entry shows many Excellent images of samplers from the 17th and 18C centuries - and they are clickable upon to become lovely and large as well.
