Decorative Flower and Leaf Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive)

I love this book! I am fascinated by the Jacobean style of floral design. This book is a reference to all the original Jacobean patterns. I want to make some large flowers, out of clay, to hang on my wall. This reference will give me a guide. It is black and white (or really gray and white) and would have been gorgeous were it in color; but it will be up to me to bring color to my clay models.

This book helps you get a lot of design ideas. All the images are as simple as the one in the cover, same style but different designs, don't expect anything detailed. The images are in average of 3 by 6 inches and you can even trace them and put them on your projects. Good addition to your book of arts.

This is a useful book if what your looking for is what is on the cover. Book is full of the cover-art... but the art itself lacks a "finished" beginning or end, so it will be up to you to work with what you see here, and not expect any finished designs out of it. Loved the artwork.

I am a freelance artist and was looking for a good source of stylized florals/paisleys for some drawings that I wanted to do...this book fits the bill perfectly! The designs are full of detail and the book carries enough variety to supply my needs for a very long time. With the added use of my own imagination, I can see myself happily referring to it for when ever my needs cross over into this type of theme. The only way to make it better would be to make it hold even more than it already does... Well done!

Numerous designs available to design your own quilting pattern. Designs I haven’t seen else where.

this is an excellent reference book to give you plenty of artistic ideas. well done.

This book has a lot of designs of more or less the same style (like that you see on the cover.) If you're into leather tooling, embroidery, or rugmaking, you might like this book, as that's what these images remind me of. The book does mention that they're all from the same antique source, so while there are a lot of very nice designs, there isn't a lot of variety. If the style of the images on the book's cover don't appeal to you, then I wouldn't recommend buying this book, because that's the one and only style of image this book contains.

Azalea City Art Quilters decided to use this book as a design inspiration for our newest challenge. I love the designs. I'm still trying to decide which ones to use and how to use them.

Bellissime illustrazioni da cui trarre ispirazione per creare.

No writing, only the images on paper. The images are not the best but are overall very very preety and are a good starting point for tracing them, coloring and redesign their features such as edges or fills . Very beautifull book . Thank you to the author .

Fast delivery. Perfect, thank you!

Very inspiring and very useable designs
