Stitching History is one of the camps offered at T Stitching History is one of the camps offered at Travellers Rest. This week campers get to learn how samplers are made along with learning and improving upon other sewing and fashion skills. These two important samplers in the collection at Travellers Rest serve as wonderful examples for the campers to emulate – the earliest dated Tennessee sampler stitched in 1807 by Susanna Haile of Washington County and one from Kentucky by Mary Ann Tureman dated July 15, 1836 -- 184 years ago today. . . . #historictravellersrest #summercamp2020 #historyisfun
