Coverlet II Collection - Windham Fabrics

This exciting new selection of colorful print fabrics is taken from individual pattern motifs of hand-woven coverlets in the collection of The National Museum of the American Coverlet. This collection includes a strong variety of large and oversized prints as well as small filler prints, all reflecting the rich graphic quality of the original document coverlets. The pattern motifs chosen for THE COVERLET COLLECTION II were taken from coverlets (bedcovers) woven in approximately 1830 to 1850. Made by both men and women, often inscribed with their makers' names and dates, these impressive textiles serve as a wonderful tribute to the art and craft of American hand weaving.
