This review is from: 376 Decorative Allover Patterns from Historic Tilework and Textiles (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
This is a Dover picturial archive book, so almost the entire book is black/white designs. Many are very flowery and detailed. Many would make either good fabric or better wallpaper designs. I bought the book for ceramic tile designs and had to weed through for something that would work. Most of the designs were too much for my purposes. Still a very good source of inspiration, as all Dover books are!

This review is from: 376 Decorative Allover Patterns from Historic Tilework and Textiles (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
The designs in this book are wonderful and the pages are fully covered with designs, with much variety. However, they are all in black and white, so the cover is very misleading.
