Les Marquoirs Anciens

Les Marquoirs Anciens de Catherine Pouchelon

In this book, Catherine Pouchelon reveals a selection of her most beautiful marquoirs. Both curious and a perfectionist, Ms. Pouchelon has conducted years of research looking into each sampler in an attempt to redraw a piece of their history. She has searched each piece to discover a name, a date, a place, a detail or a region to help clarify the mystery of their origin. All contain symbols of the French marquoirs of the 18th and 19th centuries. You will definitely be inspired by these beautiful samplers, some of which are reproduced in chart form.
