Measurement Notes
Measurements are approximate due to the inherent variability of textiles. (Conservation, 2011)
Florence Montgomery determined warps per inch: 48.
Vertical design repeat: No full vertical repeat as the panel was cut in order to make the valance
Horizontal design repeat: No - the object has been cut and seamed, so the edges are not exposed
Selvedge width: 39.50 inches - this measurement is approximate as the panel has been stitched into seams
