I learned all of these stitches from various sources, but the main ones being classes with Thistle Threads and from Jacqui Carey's Elizabethan Stitches book. The stitches I teach are a small portion of those used in period. To learn more I highly recommend both Jacqui Carey's books and Thistle Threads online classes for learning a wide variety of stitches with many extant examples of these stitches.
Stitch instruction for Reverse Chain, Detached Buttonhole, Ceylon, and Trellis are available from Thistle Threads here.
Books from Jacqui Carey are on her website here.
