This is a vintage handbook on double-running or back-stitch, with diagrams and scale drawings taken from seventeenth-century samples and other sources. It was originally intended as a practical aid for embroiderers, especially those interested in English embroidery.

M.", "Lower portion of Plate II", "English Cross-Stitch and Double-Running Sampler, from the Collection of Lady Egerton", "Diagrams from a Sampler belonging to Mrs. Clement Williams", et cetera.
