Jane Austen Cross Stitch
For those interested in needlework and cross stitch, The Sampler Girl has released On Travel with Jane Austen.
Be whisked away to Bath, England where Jane Austen lived between 1801 and 1806. While it is believed Jane did not fancy Bath as much as she so loved her birthplace of Steventon, Bath remains a charming setting for her writing and allures Janeites all the world over.
Three quotes by Jane Austen grace this design and they are:
- If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.
- ...they hastened away to the Crescent, to breathe the fresh air of better company.
- I really believe I shall always be talking of Bath, when I am at home again - I do like it so very much...Oh! Who can ever be tired of Bath?...for a fine Sunday in Bath empties every house of its inhabitants, and all the world appears on such an occasion to walk.
