    This is a sewn map sampler of England. The English Channel is shown at the bottom, and it extends upward to Northumberland and "Pt of Scotland". The edge of Ireland is shown at the left edge. Various colours of thread on a white/cream coloured base. Decorative floral border and sewn cartouche showing a sailing ship and a shoreline. The initials "WD" and the date 1792 are sewn into the Irish Sea beneath the Isle of Man. Somewhat threadbare and worn along three old folds, but in general condition is clean and very good. In a plain wooden frame with glass, size is 20.5 x 23 inches framed. Map samplers were in vogue from about 1780 to 1820; this is a very attractive example.
