August 1956 Portfolio Edition of the Shuttle Craft Guild Handweaver's Bulletin, written by Harriet Tidball. It opens with a short review of Heather Thorpe's A Handweaver's Workbook and an essay on a new trend in textile design toward smooth surfaces, pattern and classic weaves, citing American Fabrics forecasts. It then begins a series presenting Bertha Grey Hayes's seventy miniature four-harness patterns, with drafts for the first twenty (Bagatelle through Flecked Diamond), a biographical note on Hayes, and notes on weaving them as drawn in. The portfolio samples are Butterfly (#5) and Flecked Diamond/Needlepoint (#20), with yarn and sett details.
