Les belles lettres d'Alexandre à broder au point de croix
Some years ago, Véronique Maillard was amazed by a little enigmatic booklet full of cross-stitched charts. Then, she became addicted to collect charts and started cumulating embroidery booklets by the authors of the XX century, like the maisons Sajou, Rouyer, L.V. and Alexandre, one better than the other. She has chosen this time to make you discover the patterns by Alexandre and Cie, whose modern style anticipates some aspects of the Art Nouveau and actually this embroidery maison is one of the three biggest ones of the XIX century. Here is in this re-edition a very personal selection of the patterns she prefers: a nice geometrical motif, a letter decorated with a transparent heart, some motifs in blue and red in a northern style, the leaves of a flower all around an alphabet. A lot of projects to imagine and create. These patterns will enrich your own embroidered treasure.
