A short 1937 article by Veva N. Carr arguing that traditional Colonial coverlet patterns can be adapted for modern, especially Southern, homes through color changes and scaling. She describes a table cover woven from a miniature Maltese Cross draft, using a multicolored warp of odds and ends, Perle cotton pattern weft and linen tabby. It gives the threading with selvage and border counts, treadling sequences, set (15 ends per inch), length and tied fringe finish.
