Measurement Notes
Measurements are approximate due to the inherent variability of textiles. (Conservation, 2011)
Florence Montgomery determined the warps per inch at 80.
Vertical design repeat: 14.50 inches
Selvedge width: greater than 24.25 inches. The panel is quilted and appears to have been part of a chair cover. The sides have been torn, so selvedge edges do not exist with this object. The widest portion of the object was measured.
