Appalachia is proud to offer you a wonderful collection of reproduction antique samplers.  They are hand made and based on original designs by  schoolgirls attending the Miss Fanny Turgeon's School of New England.  As you would expect, the embroidery in the samplers is not of the highest quality, after all the girls who designed and made them were very young. However, what they lack in sophistication, they more than compensate for in the charm and the joy of life expressed in them. For a closer look  click on the picture.
