A first-person account by Eleanor Bontecou of weaving living-room draperies on a Structo loom for her Virginia home, colored to match a large Mosul-type Oriental rug. She used the 8-leaf Dornick twill threading from Mrs. Atwater's Shuttlecraft Book, with 40/3 linen warp and rough silk weft in blended shades, woven in Dornick bands on a modified tabby ground. It gives warp setting, color choices, and Structo lever treadling directions, and mentions a matching off-white silk fabric for a study.
