A searchable catalogue of public-domain cross-stitch patterns drawn from six digitized books.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

Field notes

The archive currently indexes 75 selected pages from six digitized books dated 1890–1917, with material in French, English, and German. Visitors can filter records by motif and year, open original-scan entries, save pages, and follow each item to its source book. The project distinguishes its own discovery tags from the intact source pages and states that more pages remain unindexed.
