True vintage patterns. Great book!

Not only the variety of images, but the size of each patterns are really a special treat. They are nice size well, illustrated embroidery patterns, and a large variety of vintage designs. Any embroiderer would love. Some of which my mother used to do and it’s exciting that I could now reproduce some of her work.

This is a lovely trip down memory lane.

Love this book! So many vintage pics to embroidery or even copy for some other project. It’s super sweet . These pics are from an era long gone but not forgotten & is still in some of our hearts & then here I run across this lil jewel of a book! I’m really ecstatic that I found & bought ! This along with the bag book I bought with the same order are my absolute favorites and I am a book lover and have Many so that is saying a lot !!!!

I recently took up hand embroidery, and I love all things vintage. This book has many really cute patterns. It also has some I don't care for. For the price, however, this is a great starting place for a beginner embroiderer. There are simple patterns and complex ones. I can easily see making a modern day "sampler" with this book. If you've been collecting vintage embroidery patterns for a while, this book might be redundant.

Love this book! I grew up in the 1950/60's and the designs in this book represent much of the needlework that my mother and grandmother worked with. The patterns are authentic and easy to reproduce. Nice variety of themes for different uses and decor. It's chock full of patterns from beginner to more advanced stitching. I love the beginning with a little history of stitching with pictures and the section on tips and how-to's. I've always been a fan of Suzanne McNeil, and this book did not disappoint. I can't imagine the hours of research and digging she must have done to accomplish putting all these wonderful patterns into one book. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves vintage projects. It will inspire you to create something original that will be treasured for years!

This was a fun book to go through with my mom. Very well done. I’m looking forward to using this book for embroidery ideas for gifts.👍🏻

Love the old time embroidery patterns and contains some content about when they were popular. Especially delighted that there was a page on coloring fabric with crayons. Plan to do that.
