Il Libro delle Ciffre Ricamate (The Book of Embroidered Lettering) – Liliana Babbi Cappelletti=

Description

This is a must-have book for anyone with an interest in whitework and monogramming. For many years this much sought-after book was out of print but has thankfully been re-printed by the author. It provides an initial brief text illustrating a history of monogramming (in Italian), illustrated with sumptuous photographs which provide a super resource for design and stitch ideas. This is followed by a  large and invaluable catalogue of innumerable alphabets and monograms, together with numbers and decorative cartouches.
