Herbert Art Gallery and Museum
Sampler in fawn linen edged with black and blue pattern. Its top shows alphabet twice in black and then blue. Under this in red, it says "Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow". This is from Psalm 51:7 and can be read as a request for the soul to be purified, or cleansed of all sin.
