This lovely cross stitch pattern by Riverdrift House is a reproduction of a Welsh sampler stitched by 12-year-old Catherine Jones in 1866. Stitched in vibrant blues and reds, the motifs depict life in the island community of Anglesey. A pretty manor house is surrounded by flowers, wildlife, and the sailing ships and copper mine so central to the community.
