Review: a definite go-to book - I cannot say enough good things about this book. It is continually inspiring. And when I need to learn something new, it does not fail to teach. Yes, it was written over a 100 years ago, but pattern is pattern. There are only so many ways to cover a two-dimensional surface with motifs or lines, and instructions for so doing are excellent. I have had difficulty only with using them for making repeats of abstract paintings, a topic only arising a number of years after Mr. Day's classes ceased. I suspect that, had he encountered such, there would have been elegant instructions for accomplishing the task. I am so glad Dover is keeping this classic in print.
Review: Pithy, practical, instructive illustrations - This book is quite old in terms of it's publishing dates, which makes me assume that it is a classic in the genre. I forget if I was referred to this book by a friend in textiles or if I found it myself. Regardless, it seems to cover the gamut of all repeat patterns and how to make them with visual instructions

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ a definite go-to book
