Fragment of a 6 harness, coverlet weave with cotton warp and blue and red wool filing. A portion of pattern suggesting pine tree pattern. According to Mary M. Atwater: one and one weave. Said by donor to be datable to around 1773.
Because of the donor, Mrs. Allen's, importance in teaching and preserving early handweaving, and the use of materials she collected in books on the subject, NMAH should keep the fragments she donated in the collection, as part of the national woven coverlet collection.
