Woven Star in Blackwork - Cross Stitch pattern by Works by ABC Adjustable 150 ~ Dusty rose ~In my explorations of old embroidery books, I came across a number of rug designs in a book from 1880. While they were intended as inspiration for woven carpet patterns, I realized that a blackwork design could also show off the dynamic beauty of the geometry.
