Book excerpt: These deigns were collected from a book titled, "Embroidery Patterns". The book was published in 1730. Because the designs are graphed, they can be used for multiple crafts, such as: cross stitch, crochet, knitting, beading, and any other craft that can use a graph. These patterns are timeless and brought back for the enjoyment of all who love making things with their hands. Two blank grid pages are included in the back of the book for those who wish to use the original grid paper to design their own pattern.
