Art In Needlework: A Book About Embroidery
Art in Needlework is a 1901 instruction book on embroidery by Lewis F. Day and Mary Buckle, written in England in the Arts and Crafts tradition for needleworkers and designers. Its plates show historic embroidered textiles and stitched motifs: scrolling flowers, stitched tendrils and an undulating stem pattern worked in raised stitches on dark ground, which a designer could draw on for surface pattern and stitch texture.
