A pattern book for embroiderers and lacemakers, engraved and published by Johann Siebmacher in Nuremberg in 1604 for cutwork and counted needlework. Plates give numbered border strips and square repeats built from grids of dots and filled cells: eight-point stars, rosettes in octagons, scrolling vines and confronted birds, usable as pixel-grid ornament, borders, or monochrome tiling textures.
