Great Resource for Designers
 
Review Date: June 2, 2006
Reviewer: Firebetty, Los Angeles, CA
This book is chock full of great Victorian design. It has cartouches (ornamental borders), patterns, single filligree elements, and the best part is that they are all royalty free. You will need to scan the elements and clean them up a bit, but this book is a fantastic resource for the "flourish" trend that is going on in graphic design right now.

Highly recommended.
excellent

This is a wonderful resource for design ideas! I use elements of these stencils as patterns for guitar inlays. The copyright info on the inside cover is generous allowing use of the patterns, "free and without special permission." in certain circumstances.
Used for engraving patterns

Excellent book for patterns! They are detailed enough without overburdening small designs. We'll be using this book for years!
incredibly inclusive

More designs than you could ever imagine. They are wonderful inspiration for my art and portrait work. For under ten bucks, this is a great value if you are seeking designs like this for inspiration.
Good Resorce book for Victorian stencil designs
 
Review Date: April 2, 1998
Reviewer: Jackeline Carter (stencil@mbox3.singnet.com.sg), Singapore
This book has many beautiful stencil designs and is a good resource book for the professional stenciler. The designs are all copy right free. The only complaint I have is that some of the designs are printed very small and it can be quite difficult to enlarge it to the right size. Also some of the designs can be a little difficult for a beginner to cut themselves.This book is more suited for a professional or someone very experience in cutting their own stencils.
