May 1954 issue of the Shuttle Craft Guild Handweaver's Bulletin (Portfolio Edition) by Harriet and Martin Tidball. It continues the study of two-shuttle pattern weaves with figures encircled by tabby, giving a 6-harness, 82-thread threading with tie-up and treadling, an 8-harness extension, and a 6-harness Tabby and Point draft with two tie-ups. It reports on the completed Ceylon Project, in which Guild members gave a Macomber loom and equipment to Dr. Edith Ludowyk-Gyomroi's weaving workshop in Menikdiwela. It ends with advice on finishing and preventing raveling of handwoven edges, including a Duco cement and acetone edge preservative, and a page of woven samples.
