The provision of credit and other financial services has become increasingly seen as the answer to the problems facing poor people. Microfinance interventions have the capacity to increase incomes, contribute to individual and household security, and change social relations for the better. However, it may not be assumed, argue the authors of this book, that they will do so and it may often be more effective in terms of poverty reduction to combine credit provision with other development activities. Considering various types of finance schemes, this text compares the effectiveness of different approaches in aiding poverty reduction. The book emphasizes the importance of first studying the local context, and then considering the macroeconomic factors which may be operating upon the economy of a particular country. Five extended case studies, in the Gambia, Ecuador, Mexico, Pakistan, and the UK are examined with reference to further aspects of sustainability and impact assessment.
Victorian Monograms Motifs & Borders: Charted Designs for Needlepoint & Cross Stitch

Monograms have always been a fashionable way for embroiderers to personalize fashion and home decor. In contrast to the subtle white-on-white embroidery often found on bed linens and handkerchiefs, the exuberantly colorful designs that follow are more modern than you might expect from Victorian needlework.This collection is reproduced from German textile designer Friedrich Fischbach's work titled "Bunt-Stickerei-Vorlagen" (colorful embroidery patterns) published around 1870. These individual letters, entwined monograms, motifs and borders are a remarkable resource for modern needleworkers to use on their own projects. Designs charted on graph paper are a universal language which can be translated into needlepoint and counted cross stitch, with each square on the pattern representing a single stitch. Author's Note: Please be aware that older alphabets may not contain all letters. For example, "I" and "J" were often considered interchangeable, and many alphabets contain only one or the other, not both. The elaborate diagonal monogram series ("L" and "M" are shown on the front cover) does not include "J", "X" or "Y".

Victorian Berlin Work Pattern Plates: A Collection of Charted Motifs from 19th Century Germany for Needlepoint & Cross Stitch

These pattern plates are from a series of 19th century German cards, or small pattern plates; all the motifs are in the classic "Berlin Work" style of floral wreaths and sprays, geometric borders and overall repeating patterns, quaint village buildings and other motifs. I found the first few cards many years ago in a box of miscellaneous sewing goods- long before I even knew exactly what they were- and eventually more from an Austrian manuscript dealer. They are presented slightly enlarged for easier reading but otherwise unaltered, with the marks of age and prior use still in evidence. Small patterns like these offer endless possibilities for today's needleworkers, from arranging motifs and borders into designs to selecting your own color combinations. Using brilliantly colored seed beads on canvas or linen, either as accents or to entirely replace the thread colors, is another time-honored tradition for these patterns and one that manages to look both antique and modern at the same time.
