Today I came across some nice embroidery designs while reading Ladie's fancy work
edited by Jenny June (aka Jane Cunningham Croly) & copyrighted 1886 by A. L. Burt
a public domain Pdf ebook found in google books

The first thing I noticed that it contains almost all the needlework pages from a madam worth needlework manual that I have that was also copyrighted by A. L. Burt
but it also looks like it contains just the needlework sections from other Magazines that Jenny June edited
if you are interested in antique Victorian needlework - Crochet, Tatting, Knitting, Embroidery, Sewing etc.
this is a good resource book.
today I extracted just the more interesting outline embroidery designs from the book.
