Weldons needlework old & new
Weldons Needlework Old & New is a London needlework pattern book published by Weldons Ltd and the Amalgamated Press in 1900, aimed at home embroiderers. Its plates show needlework designs in several styles, including a worked floral panel, a printed-style flower pattern, a rose spray and a tapestry-like carpet design with room photographs. A designer can take from them dense, naturalistic flower clusters and tight repeat patterns that suit textile and surface work.
