Swedish Textiles, published in Stockholm in 1925 by the Nordiska Museet and written by Emelie von Walterstorff, is a museum survey of Swedish needlework and woven fabrics for readers interested in regional textile craft. The pictures are photographs of striped woven bands, diamond-lattice weavings in red, green and yellow, and a black and white bed cover with stepped medallions, offering designers strong geometric repeats, bold stripe rhythms and folk embroidery motifs.
