Vanity Sampler

This sampler design by Hello From Liz Mathews features flowers, trees, and "Youth and vigor soon will flee. Blooming beauty lose it's charms. All that's mortal soon will be enclosed in death's cold arms." A second chart combines a collection of the motifs from the large sampler as well as two alphabets and a set of numbers allowing this piece to be personalized using the smaller sampler adaptation.
