Issue of The Weaver's Quarterly (January 1937) edited by Kate Van Cleve. It presents embroidery-weave motif charts (laid-in, Swedish, and French embroidery weaves) with suggested uses, and two coverlet drafts: Ladies Delight, woven in Virginia before the Civil War, and a walnut and wine colored coverlet from the North. Each draft comes with warp, weft, reed, threading, and weaving notes, plus ideas such as curtains, evening bags, and stair carpet. A section on linen covers warp and weft types, tow, yardage per pound for Bernat and Ederlin linens, and a worked warp-estimating example; it closes with a note on card weaving supplies.
