Weldon's Practical Needlework: v. 5 - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

PieceWork magazine brings you Victorian needlework at its finest with these special compilations of Weldon's Practical Needlework. In this volume you'll find lovely crocheted edgings, designs for Mountmellick embroidery, and some innovative knitted seed-bead trims, along with patterns that explain why women then were prone to fainting spells; also see a barrister’s wig in puffed knitting, an alarming Bulgarian headdress, and a bag for holding lemons.

Patterns are exact replicas of the premier needlework magazine from turn-of-the-century England. Each volume is filled with hundreds of vintage projects, illustrations, information on little-known techniques, fashion as it was in the late 1800s and brief histories of needlework.
