TAILIEUCHUNG - ENCYCLOPEDIA OF NEEDLEWORK - PART 1

The absolute want of any comprehensive book on needlework—such an one as contains both verbal and pictorial descriptions of everything included under the name of needlework—has led me to put into the serviceable form of an Encyclopedia, all the knowledge and experience, which years of unceasing study and practice have enabled me to accumulate on the subject, with the hope that diligent female workers of all ages, may be able, by its means to instruct themselves in every branch of plain and fancy needlework. . | ENCYCLOPEDIA OF NEEDLEWORK - PART 1 BY THÉRÈSE DE DILLMONT ENGLISH EDITION ALL RIGHTS RESERVED To be had of TH.
