Gee Tina I wouldn't feel bad - a sale is a sale and probably felt he got a good deal>

It looks like your Mr Raymond was a prolific designer he also published a book on needlework art patterns and it seems a lot of the art nouveau clip art in the Dover Clipart series also comes courtesy of him.

When will you be posting your first piece - no pressure :)

No pressure uhh? *LOL* (running down to the workshop looking for pieces to work at, Pheuw!)

I also found out Mr Raymond seams to have made a similar pattern folder for stain glass too...How neat to find that one:-)

Sandy:

Thanks, I do feel very lucky, I like the age of it all, these is real Art Nouveau from the period:-)

Kate:

Thank you, I'll for sure look in to it:-)

Luke:

I agree, they are beautiful:-)

Hi Tina I know this is an older post and you may have posted some of the images some where else. I would love to see any of your work or images from your book. Rob

Hi Rob,

I have yet to make anything using the patterns from the book, most of my stuff is my own patterns that I draw...Just wish the days had more hours :-)

If/when I make anything from the book I will for sure post it here on LW//Tina

Any chance of scanning the pages high resolution and posting them online somewhere? If the book was from 1908 it's almost certainly out of copyright, being 103 years old. I for one would love to have some genuine art nouveau patterns. The western patterns that seem to be all one can find published these days are fine, but not really my cup of tea.

I have been asked that question before and I have yet to decide what to do so, for the moment I'll let it be.

No problem. Just add me to the list of interested parties, should you ever decide to scan them. Thanks!
