Fiber Talk with Eileen Bennett

Betsy Patrick 1799 sampler, reproduced by Eileen Bennett.

Eileen Bennett of The Sampler House is a widely recognized sampler history expert, skilled sampler reproducer, and talented designer of original samplers. In this week’s show, sponsored by Embroiderers Guild of America and Needle in a Haystack, we learn about Eileen’s impressive background of sampler research/genealogy, hear stories about how she’s uncovered many interesting aspects of reproduction samplers, and learn about the many books she’s authored. We’re confident you’ll enjoy the discussion and encourage you to consider joining the EGA and shopping at Needle in a Haystack.–Gary
