Notes
Content: Printed on border: "This pattern is chiefly used for travelling-bags, and is also suitable for ornamenting many articles of fancy-work, such as card-cases, sachets, mats, stools, cushions, etc. Worked upon common canvas the ground should be of a bright color, such as red, blue, or violet. The white and black parts of the swallow look better worked in floss silk, the gray shades in wool." Includes additional text.
Source note: Godey''s lady''s book. (Philadelphia : [s.n.] 1830-).
