The date of August the 23rd 1811 is stitched beneath the verse with a crown above the A of August and a strawberry at the side of the year 1811. This section of stitch work is then underlined with an undulating border.The linen has some very slight areas of thinning which are easier to see due to its unusual colour, and the colours of the silks are good. The last photo is of the reverse of the sampler and indicates how the colours would have looked when Sarah first stitched it. Measures 7 3/4" x 12 1/2"
