A step up from the outline pre-punched embroidery cards for kindergarten children. Some stitch placement suggestions, otherwise all left to the embroiderer.

On the other side Wise Proverbs. The first says that if you walk barefeet, you won't feel bothered by lack of shoes when you see someone else lacking both feet. Second says that if you are happy with the entire world but most happy with yourself, that is the best fate that could befall you and I wish it for you and myself. The third says that for a possession to make you happy, you have to have won it yourself, and that for joy is to be felt fully, first your suffering has to be defeated.

Wunsch, Marie
Lost In The Forest
HANSEL and GRETEL Neyret Freres/Cash's STEVENGRAPH WOVEN SILK
|
A woven silk image after a painting by Marie Wunsch of Hans and Gretel, titled Lost In The Forest, in two sizes. Such woven images are also called Stevengraphs after the inventor. The scans and photos do not do them justice, as changing light also changes the image, making it much more lively to look at than the static digital image ever can show. Compare the two sizes to see how the pattern was adapted to each size. The reverse side of each is also shown. The first image is a fair-use thumbnail of the original painting.

Single page, two embossed patterns. They might be intended for a smoking cap, if the rectangular pattern would be extended to cover the circumference of the round one. The relative dimensions look a bit off for a smoking cap, but maybe that was left to the needleworker. Of course these designs would also be suitable for other purposes.

Embroidery pattern for dark green wallet or clutch
Journal des Demoiselles

Single sheet, with a dark green oblong and three parts of embroidery, intended to be folded over and the bottom sides sewn to the middle, with the top remaining as flap. The embroidery is couched gold cord, with what looks like mostly applique of two types embroidered or printed ribbon. Such items were common in earlier ages as portefeuilles. The Rijksmuseum has one from Michiel de Ruyter, with beads and embroidery, from the seventeenth century. Still useful as wallet or clutch or holder for a smartphone.

Eight colored drawings of Japanese origin. They show mythical air spirits playing musical instruments. The drawings were photographed while still in protective sleeves, which is why the background color is uneven. The faces and bodies of these musicians are done in very light grey, whereas the clothes and other accessoires are boldly drawn and colored.

Supplement from the 17th year of Journal des Demoiselles. A round pattern printed on cream cardboard. A red border with a gold and black chain design, and the center with blue and brown curlicues outlined in black and gold. The background color was not given but might be white. The pattern looks symmetrical but isn't. It would be suitable for a round decorative pillow cover or table center. It's probably too large for a hot plate if done in beadwork.

Beaded bag No. 1
Den Haan & Wagenmakers, Edam
|
Pattern for a knitted bag with beading, also suitable for cross-stitch. A parrot sitting on a fence looking down at a dog. The top of the bag has a floral border which can be used independently. The bottom of the bag is a floral design with three red flowers, and blue leaves on a lighter blue background.
The middle pattern has an error; the pillar behind the dogs tail does not run all the way to the bottom. Also, the mountain in the background is cut off rather abruptly. Probably this is an adaption of a larger pattern, that has been cropped to suit the dimensions of the bag.

Dutch needlework sampler
AMAZING-1922-VERY-LARGE-DUTCH-NEEDLEWORK-SAMPLER-CROSS-STITCH-SEWING-TECHNIQUES-311555241722
|
A needlework sampler also known as "pronklap" to showcase the makers sewing and embroidering abilities. Usually these were made during sewing lessons that were given to girls after schooltime. This sampler is probably the work of years. Most of these samplers were long and narrow; this one has three narrower strips side by side and had metal rings so it could be hung on a wall.

Eight traditional German maxims
|
Eight single sheets, probably from one booklet, printed in red and green on a green grid. Each has a traditional maxim, about food (give us today our daily bread, clean kitchen and good wine cellar means a tasty meal, a happy face is the best dish, drink and eat and do not forget God), about the clean linens (grown in sun and wind and bleached on green grass it lies now in the locker as pride for the German housewife), about the house (sweet home is happiness only), about patience (do not hurry, good things will wait), and about work (work is an ornament to people - blessing is the reward of effort). Some damage to the bottom of a few patterns, but missing parts have been reconstructed.

Although the text is in fraktur script and probably not an easy read (as well as German) the illustrations are fabulous, in clear black and white the lace pattern, and an engraving of the resulting lace. This edition is the third, indicating that the book must have sold well at the time. And with every new edition new patterns were added.
No separate pattern sheets, but with copy-paste-print that shouldn't be a big problem. Some nice illustrations of antique lacemaking tools as well.

Bury St. Edmunds Cathedral Kneelers
Selection of photos
|
Forty-eight photographs of kneelers in the cathedral of Bury St. Edmunds. This is a small sample of the phenomenal collection of embroidered kneelers in that church. All were embroidered in the 60s, two for each parish, and there's around 500 parishes in that diocese. Each has the name of the parish, a symbolic representation of the parish or a more general religious motif, to a blue background divided in three parts by a gold and red Y.
See https://parishkneelers.co.uk/churches/suffolk/bury-st-edmundsbury-cathedral/ for smaller images of 81 of them.

Two separate leaves from a very old book. The black letters are printed, the initials are handpainted afterwards. To make the painting easier, little letters were printed in the empty space showing which initial should go where. It appears to be a book about religious laws.
The leaves were numbered 1 per leaf, not as we now do an odd number on one side and an even number on the other.
