Illustrated catalogue of American hand-woven coverlets in the Newark Museum, compiled by Margaret E. White in 1947. Introductory essays cover coverlet dyes and colors, loom rooms and loom houses, and itinerant weavers. Numbered entries then describe each coverlet with a photograph, history, pattern names, dimensions, colors and accession data, grouped as overshot, double weave, summer and winter or double-face, and Jacquard. Entries cite Atwater, Hall and Worst for threading drafts. Two pages reproduce drawdowns, and a bibliography closes the book.
