Product Information

Italian needlework of all kinds was very popular at the turn of the 20th century, and this 1920s needlework classic contains a fine collection of everything from cutwork to filet lace.

Book Excerpt:

The designs for filet lace contained in this book have been printed in blue in order to facilitate the work. They will be found far less fatiguing to the eye than the usual black and white designs. They are also unusually large and can be easily followed. Many of the designs may be used as tidies or doilies, or may be set into linens.

Motifs of point lace and filet lace may be set into linens for bedroom or table use. Centerpieces, bureau scarfs, doilies, curtains and many other articles are extremely effective when ornamented with this artistic needlework.
