A Length of Beautifully Blue Toned Plaid Cotton: Patched and Hand Woven

late nineteenth, early twentieth century
58" x 13/14", 147 cm x 33.5 cm

This is a length of beautiful hand spun, hand woven cotton. Its warm blue tones are low contrast and close in value to one another. This is a is visually sophisticated length of country cloth.

The texture of the hand spun cotton yarns create an added beauty to this simply colored cotton cloth--and the plaid pattern is beautifully proportioned and aligned on this narrow length of cloth.

There are four patches hand stitched to the length which shows some snags and small holes. These are to be expected for a hand woven cotton length of this age.

Simply beautiful.
