Many of the samplers for this exhibition were boxed up and stored away before the project started. One of the biggest parts of Simply Samplers has been the process of conserving and then framing the pieces included in the show. Why not take a look at our behind the scenes film of this preparation work which largely took place at the Scottish Conservation Studio at Hopetoun House?

Simply Samplers is a touring exhibition created by East of Scotland Digital Resources Team and Fife Council Museums, as a Regional Development Challenge Fund Project.
