Pattern Drafts selected for Twin City Weavers' Guild Project for April 12, 1945, with two swatches, St. Paul, Minnesota
Two swatches were woven by Hilma Berglund, on cotton warps with linen wefts. The first swatch (3cm x 28cm) is Summer and Winter. A hand-printed paper label is sewn to the back of the swatch. The second (4cm x 16.5cm) is labeled "Crackle Weave/spacing used here. The swatch appears to have been mended. Acompanying the swatches is a vintage copy of the drafts and instructions that were sent to Twin City Weavers' guild members inviting them to send in results of their experiments with the two weave structures.
