Woman's handiwork in modern homes
Woman's Handiwork in Modern Homes is an 1881 New York guide to embroidery and decorative needlework by the author Burton Harrison, written for women who did their own household ornamentation. Its pictures are line drawings of embroidery stitches, a shaded grid pattern, a stitched panel, and a needle with thread, offering a designer clean botanical outlines and simple stitch-textures to adapt.
