Sponsored by TWIST - Tablet Weavers International Studies & Techniques

Hi everyone,

For those interested in historic tablet weaving:

There is a big article by Martha Henze, with many photos, in the latest 
Textile Museum Journal, "Tablet-woven Curtains from Ethiopia:  New Light on 
a Puzzling Group of Textiles"  (Textile Museum Journal 1999-2000, pages 
84-100).

Also, I have put some photos of 19th century Bakhtiyari bands and a horse 
headdress on my website, in the Tablet Weaving Gallery.  These bands are in 
the collection of Fred Mushkat.  They are woven in 3/1 broken twill, and 
the horse headdress is embellished with cowrie shells, buttons, and tassels.
