Once considered an important part of a woman's personal belongings,
vintage cotton and damask table, bed and bath linens are often wonderful
examples of the loom and needle arts. Textile weaving, lace tatting and
embroidery could take craftspeople hundreds of hours; the resulting
pieces were treasured, loved and passed along through families. And
sooner or later, some are given up to the marketplace, for new owners to
enjoy.
These are some of the pieces from my husbands family.
