The Needle Work-Book of Nelly van Maarseveen





I love beautiful needle work-books and many years ago I found this book in my aunt's collection. To my mind, it is one of the most delightful. Originally made in 1886, it was republished in facsimile form in 1981 and is still readily and cheaply available via internet second hand book shops in the Netherlands. It is well worth the hunt and the postage!
