A 1524 German pattern book by Johann Schonsperger, printed for embroiderers and lacemakers who worked borders on a frame, its woodcut pages showing repeating ornamental strips. Its pictures are dense acanthus scrolls, interlaced ribbon bands and vine borders, offering a designer ready-made rhythmic border systems that can be adapted for modern edging, textile trim or wallpaper.
