		<description><![CDATA[Marilyn, a frequent contributor to the comments and embroiderer on the jacket as well as a student of Japanese embroidery, recently asked me if any weaving was going on in Plymouth Colony as early as the 1620s.
The answer is no, we have no evidence that any was and lots of evidence that there was no [...]]]></description>

Thank you to the two readers who commented on the red petticoat post; red certainly was an extremely desirable and expensive color to dye, and it is very likely those facts contributed to the higher value assigned to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was asked for some information on kinds of cloth available in the early 17th century. This information is going to the interpreters who portray the Plymouth colonists in the 1627 English Village and on Mayflower II.

Epstein, Kathleen. An Anonymous Woman Her Work Wrought in the 17th Century. Curious Works Press, Austin: 1992.
This is one of my very favorite embroidery books. It’s a gem, packed with historical background and excellent how-to instructions. Sadly, it is also out of print.

We’re working on contingency plans, one of which involves choosing a completely different linen from a different manufacturer, one whose US [...]]]></description>
