Description
This collection of 24 richly colored charts showcases the enduring influence of the exotic East on Victorian design. Reproduced from 19th-century German textile designer Friedrich Fischbach's work, these patterns blend geometric shapes, stylized florals, and borders in a universal language that can be translated into various needlework techniques.
For inspiration, the book includes photographs of an example of Victorian needlepoint worked from similar charts, as well as a page of plain graph paper to aid in adapting these designs to your own creations.
