Text Appearing Before Image:
o in Chapter VII, is the bedspread signed M. R. 1809 in theColonial Room in the basement of the Metropolitan Museum. Aninteresting cross-stitch embroidered rug in the same room is the onemade in Northeastern New York about 1810, and lent to the museumby Miss Mygatt. It was made in strips a yard wide, which were thensewed together. The border has shell-bearing bands on each side ofa fret band, and the field consists of diagonal wavy bands of rosesintersecting one another at right angles, with plain squares betweenthe intersections. As for rag carpets and fibre rugs and grass rugs, everybodyknows them. They are all made on the same plan, big heavy weftswith slender cotton binders. Twenty years ago the rag carpet indus-try was an important one, and housewives all over the United Statesused to sew their rags into long strips to be Avoven into rugs at thelocal factory. Now rag carpets are mostly made out of new rags, asare the round and oval carpets sewed together out of pleated braids 171
