Her session will be a crash course in the history and significance of 19th century handwoven bed coverlets, highlighting the spectacular collection at Compass Inn Museum. The talk will cover what coverlets are, how they were made (and who made them), and how they fit into the fabric of society during their peak of popularity from 1830 to 1860.
