Omg majorly fangirling here—I used EEBO for research in my course on the history of the book, and it was such a useful tool!!! I am so glad there’s something similar for antique patterns! Will Heidi be doing a roundup of vintage snood patterns next?!

It really was fun interacting with all of those old books. We literally worked in a cage in a library, so it was a very Buffy the Vampire Slayer feeling!

I’m not sure what Heidi’s planning for future vintage crafting, but it certainly wouldn’t surprise me!
