Yesterday at #WhitehavenArchives we had a visit off Kate from Faith in the Town Amongst the archives she looked at were these beautiful samplers. The needlework was exquisite and the amazing thing was the girls who produced these works of art were only 7 and 8 years old.
Pop along to #WhitehavenArchives on Tues night for their monthly historical knees up. With sources from the archives & local studies library they'll help you explore how different those early years were in the past. All welcome! twitter.com/cumbriaarchive…
