A two-page January 1947 Handweaving News leaflet by Nellie Sargent Johnson on designing two-block threading drafts for a four-harness table loom, for modern luncheon place mats with no center motif. It explains how to build "5 and 1" and "7 and 1" threading drafts from a key draft, with block-by-block thread counts, tie-up, treadling and plain-weave tabby sequence. It also gives sett and warp suggestions (20/2 cotton, 15-dent reed, 419 threads) and notes on planning block lengths in inches.
