Vintage handmade needlepoint sampler with the children's bedtime prayer, a charming bedroom scene, and rose border. Professionally framed.
This vintage hand-stitched cross-stitch sampler features the beloved children's bedtime prayer — "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep, keep me safely through the night, and wake me with the morning light" — stitched in Gothic-style lettering on a cream ground. Below the text is a sweet bedtime scene with a child tucked into bed flanked by two figures, all framed by a trailing rose vine border in pinks, reds, and blues. The piece is mounted in a dark wood frame with a gold inner liner. Approximately 12" wide by 14" tall (ruler reads are approximate). A beautiful piece for a nursery, guest room, or cottage-style bedroom gallery wall.
