Herrschner Catalogue online
Monday, November 9, 2009 at 5:37AM | Sharon B | 6 Comments | in Books, Free patterns, Hand Embroidery, Historical textiles, Needlework, Resources 
I stumbled across this Herrschner Catalog circa 1907 which is being digitised and is going online.
There is all sorts of vintage embroidery patterns and needlework designs which have been released under the creative commons license. This means you can use them in your projects and I know stitchers love free vintage patterns.
So it is with thanks to the Embroiderist who is doing the work that I point you towards this resource
