This is a sampler worked by Harriett Line aged 12. The '88' after Harriett's aged probably refers to the year 1888. This would fit with the colour and style of the piece - the bright colours were possible after the discovery of synthetic dyes in 1856.

The text reads

Remember me when this you see

and do my failings all forgive

Twine a fair wreath around my name

and let it on they memory live.
