B27 The Wonderful Red, White and Blue Blanket
c.1880
69 x 78 inches
New England
$900
A graphically pleasing plaid home woven woolen blanket...perfect to use any time of the year when one needs some warmth.
Can you imagine how long it took to weave this wonderful blanket...Woven on a 26-1/2" loom from red, white and blue woolen yarn.
The finished product was then sewn together in three strips.
After the Civil War more people started purchasing wool than going through the entire time consuming process to create the
finished product...The industrial era was beginning. I believe this yarn was purchased..therefore this blanket is called
home woven and not homespun.
The three strips are sewn together so perfectly that this blanket is reversible. A piece of textile art to use on your
bed or a wonderful throw for one's couch or chair.
We are happy to send for your at home approval. Shipping is always free in the continental USA...internationally there is a shipping fee.
