This page from Johann Sibmacher’s *Newes Modelbuch in Kupffer*, published in 1604, contains two elaborate designs for needlepoint embroidery. The intricate geometric patterns would have been used to decorate textiles for clothing, household items, and other decorative objects. Sibmacher’s book was a popular source of embroidery patterns for home crafters in the early 17th century.
