htful book on a delightful theme, valuable alike to the
collector, the artist-craftsman (or woman), and the womanly woman
in the new or old-fashioned sense of the term."--_Sunday
Chronicle._

"To the lay reader who has never handled needle or bobbin; to the
general reader who reads for enjoyment and has in consequence some
nodding acquaintance with Queens like Elizabeth, Mary, known as
bloody, and the other Mary who is not known at all; to this general
reader such a work as Miss Jourdain's may afford a good deal of the
leisurely enjoyment that is sought in books. He will make the
acquaintance of Queen Elizabeth's petticoat, of the bed hangings
that concealed or decorated the slumbers of the one Mary or the
other."--Miss Violet Hunt in the _Daily Chronicle_.
