These berries capture the essence of the beloved Bristol orphanage samplers and pay homage to those children and the Bristol orphanages. This chartpak includes the ever-present Bristol Squirrel shown full size, and another chart with a smaller squirrel sized to fit a typical linen berry.

The orphanage berry and mini sampler are a nod to the mission George Műller and his wife began in 1836. With the exception of the buildings in the designs, all of the motifsThis final set of berries in the series focuses on several of the motifs typical of Bristol samplers, including the Bible, crosses, a crown, small animals, and more of the various patterns found in Maria Hancock’s sampler.
