Thank you!

 "Ostaus, Giovanni. La Vera Perfezione del Disegno [True Perfection in
 Design], 1561, 92 pages. Note: 1909 facsimile. Scanned images provided by

Yes--that's the one contained in "Flowers of the Needle" (the date is what 
flags is for me, as well as the title)

< However, remember that a lot of digital book and manuscript collections 
have additions made every day.  Siebmacher's Modelbuch was not on either of 
www.csu.arizona.edu or www.antiquepatternlibrary.org - it's at the Munich
 Digitisation Centre, 
http://www.digitale-sammlungen.de/index.html?c=startseite&l=en>

I remember being surprised (but delighted) to see it available. If people 
can Google the title/author and find it easily, then "Flowers" becomes 
obsolete. I'm a year away, though, so heaven knows what will happen by then.

I was going to at least have 100 cc done. I was pondering 200 cc but would 
hate to see free downloads stick me with extras. Oh, well, I'm not quite 
halfway done with the digital remastering.

Meanwhile, many thanks to you both and to  anyone else helping me out! (this 
List is so amazing!)
