Julie Rutter's query is worth discussion on the list. I would like to know more about the origins of tablet weaving and exactly how old it is as I too have read conflicting information. Can anyone comment on this? Judy

Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Dear Nancy, I’m a member of the braid society, and was told that you’re the person to ask about historical Tablet Weaving. Recently I’ve begun to investigate the history of TW and I find a lot of the books vague when it comes to actually dating the technique. I’m aware that TW was used extensively in England in the 15thC, as there are surviving textiles to show this. My period of interest however, is the late Elizabethan period. I wondered if you knew categorically if TW was practised then, and if so could you point me to the sources so that I may look at them myself?
