I ran across one of these on the website of a shop I like, went to the designer's website, and had to share. All of these are based on Pride and Prejudice

have an old chart somewhere that has a quotation from the novel about female accomplishment, but have never really liked the female figure on the chart; I have thought of adapting it so the clothing is a bit more obviously of the period.



But now I am thinking---don't I just need a sampler of Rosings???

If anyone else has an interest in literary based samplers, you should also check out the Sampler Girl, Tanya Anderson. There's a profile of her on Hoffman:

It was just so sort of pert. And I loved them represented as animals.
