Ackermann's Repository & Embroidery Patterns

From 1809-1829, during the Regency era, Rudolph Ackerman published a periodical called the Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Fashions, and Politics, or, for short (thankfully!) Ackermann's Repository. Ackermann's Repository can serve as a nice source of free hand embroidery
