Book excerpt: Assisi embroidery is a special form of cross stitch work and uses a method known as voiding, in which the background, rather than the design is worked. The pattern which remains is then outlined in Holbein stitch to give it extra definition. The designs in this book all originated in Assisi during the first quarter of this century, and can be used for decorating table linen, bed linen, furnishings, and other items. The author provides full instructions on working methods, material and techniques, and offers advice on using patterns. Detailed notes and suggestions also accompany each design.

Book excerpt: OLD ITALIAN LACE. Volume I. Originally published in 1913. How can we discover the first origin of an art so modest as to be content to remain almost exclusively feminine and anonymous, flourishing in the silence of the cloister and the quiet of the fireside The meek nun stitching at an altar-cloth, or the young mother happy in the preparation of babyclothes and trimming the fine Iinen with the new form of embroidery, were all unconsciously building up the foundation of the History of Lace, and did not think of dating their handiwork.
