    Post 18th c. linen Turkish towel end sampler. has some similar colors and stitchwork as those used in Southern 
    Russian work during the 18th c.

    the household and in religious and 
    holiday processions. It was also a gift 
    from the bride to the groom's family to proove her skill in needlework.
