About the inspiring book
Encyclopedia of Needlework, by Thérèse de Dillmont (Vienna, 1886).
First published in French and since then translated into various languages, the Encyclopedia remains a landmark work on the history, practice, and teaching of needlework techniques. Verbal and graphic descriptions of sewing, white embroidery, and knitting, among others, appear throughout the book.
Thérèse de Dillmont (1846-1890) was an Austrian embroideress, designer, and writer, who grew up in Vienna and became famous for her association with the firm DMC in Mulhouse. She trained as a governess and a teacher, an education that included embroidery. De Dillmont was also the author of numerous booklets with embroidery patterns from around the world, including titles such as Moroccan Embroidery and Cross Stitch. Several DMC embroidery shops were opened under her name, in Vienna, Paris, Berlin, and London.
