TW edges on cloth, later examples?

Hi all,

Does anyone know of any examples of tablet woven starting borders on cloth 
from the medieval period (13-14 c)?

Or, a mix of TW edges (selvedge edges) and loom woven cloth at the centre 
(which I know some people do today).

I know that the earlier ones seem to have been woven using a vertical 
warp-weighted loom (the cloth section), would this work with a horizontal 
loom or be too complicated to warp up?  I don't know much about 
weaving/warping cloth looms!

Thanks,
Gina
