Die tüchtige Hausfrau; ein praktisches Nachschlagebuch ..
A German household handbook edited by Antonie Steimann, published in Stuttgart in 1913 for housewives, covering needlework, cooking and home management. Its pictures are plain line drawings of fabric and sewing technique: a folded seam with a slanted cut, a lattice of star-shaped drawn-thread work, and a striped woven cloth with a darned or mended patch and threaded needle, useful for designers wanting simple textile motifs and stitch diagrams.
