Exciting Update about Trevelyon 1608 Miscellany



Thomas Trevelyon embroidery patterns now available online!



The other day I posted about the Trevelyon 1608 Miscellany reprint available for $750 from Folger Shakespeare museum in DC.



It appears that the museum has now made this book available to view online.   It looks like there are over 600 pages.  Each of the Folger's online pages has about 50 pages from Trevelyon's book.  Folger's page 7 is where the embroidery patterns seem to start, though there are some scattered amongst the earlier pages.


 Check out the link below (copy & paste it into your browser):

You can download pages by bringing up the page you want, then clicking Export in the upper right hand corner.  Or there's an option to use them in a presentation format.  Ok, I'm rating high on the geek-o-meter bc I'm so excited by this I can hardly type!

Enjoy!
