Herbarium #11: Wood Bine for the Tools of the Trade by Becky Collis

She may be gathering flowers for their decorating possibilities but

Painted tin vasculum, a container

A vasculum is a container for carrying specimens. The word comes
from the Latin for a small vessel --- as in one's vascular system of blood vessels.

Remarkably, all 8 vintage samplers have similar versions of the Wood Bine with leaves,
buds and florals on a double loop.
Robyn Gragg redrafted the woodbine for the corners of her Gloria.

Is there a second page for the pattern?
No Dawn. All the parts should be there. It's a pretty simple reversed design.
