Samplers from Friesland, in the northwest of the Netherlands, are characterized chiefly by many alphabets and a tree of life motif. This sampler also features pierced and crowned hearts and windmills, motifs typical of samplers from the Netherlands. The sampler includes stitched initials "T", "H", and "HK" flanking hearts. It is possible the sampler maker embroidered the letters to commemorate a sibling’s marriage. If this is the case, "T" would be the initial of the sibling’s first name and "HK" the initials of the spouse’s full name. The year 1670, stitched below "T hearts H," is either the year in which the maker completed her work or the year her sibling got married.
