Coverage

Two wave cover, sewn together with a longitudinal seam. Woven in a sunset up retrieve with a partially plucked pattern (several different threads are used over the width of the weave and are oblique to each other where they meet). The pervasive pattern arising from solvency and trampling is very small rhombuses. The actual pattern is caused by the weaving of stripes, fields and pattern figures with pattern elements of different colours. Bottom fabric in tuskraft of beige cotton yarn. The cover has a midfield consisting of a red middle box (woven with red and bright red yarn) surrounded by a greytoned yellow-green frame and outside it a black frame. Over and below the midfield are stretchers in beige, gray-toned light blue, black, yellow-brown, light red and gray-toned light yellow. The patterns in the stretchers are stripes and plucked arrow-shaped pattern figures and rhombuses. Remains of short eyed fringes can be found along the long sides, partly from the pattern cover and partly from sewn wool yarn in different colours (along the black middle frame side). At one card page noticed?MD 1854 (probably CMD) with a cross stitch in bright red clay Sunvad collected was named after how many shells were used for the weave, however the literature is unclear as to whether the number of the bottom shank should be counted. Today, the sun is taught to collect under the name of a small country. The middle box was sometimes called a priest, because there the priest would lay the Bible at house interrogations. The word quilt was used sooner about a tissue that was used to cover over a piece of furniture, both bed and table. Wear marks and layings that form a square on this cover speak of probably being used for canvas on a table. A lot of worn, the pattern wrapped piecemeal. Stocks (stops) about 13 cm in from the edge in four places. A big hole next to such a lawsuit. Spotted.
