1930s Needlepoint Sampler Depicting a Sailing Ship – Unframed

A delightful original 1930s needlepoint sampler featuring a finely stitched three-masted sailing ship above the timeless motivational verse:

“Don’t wait for your ship to come in

Row out and meet it.”

Hand-worked in coloured wool on natural linen canvas, the sampler displays the honest craftsmanship and gentle charm associated with interwar domestic needlework. The nautical subject, complete with flying pennants, remains particularly popular today and sits comfortably within both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Offered unframed, allowing the next owner the opportunity to mount and frame the piece to complement their own décor. The soft age-related toning to the linen and minor unfinished edges only add to its authentic character.

Dimensions; 16 inches x 13 inches (approximately)

Unframed.
