Weaving patterns, [ca. 1857-ca. 1871].

Consists of ten hand done weaver's draughts (patterns), probably from Botetourt County, Va. Identified patterns include: wheel and beauty, pine blossom, double peach seed, double bow knot, and cartwheel. Most are signed by either Mary Jane Since, Mary Jane Fisher, or Susan Simmons. All of the patterns have what appear to be pin holes, suggesting that the designs were executed. One unidentified pattern contains a list of the number of threads of each color to be used.
