Black Ticking stripe with tobacco and brown background square 20 in cloth hand woven primitive cotton washable What a great color combination! oh can't you just see this on your table with a lovely arrangement of prim items . It sets the tone for decorating a lovely home. You can't find this kind of cloth just any where. you can't recreate hand made fabric with a machine . There are fake fabrics like this but you can tell hand woven has a feel of the soft beat of each thread that has been put into place one at a time rhythmically, rich warm colors . and the knowledge that I made this with just the power of my hands . no fossil fuels were used . I wash my textiles after they are woven to let the yarn bloom .commercial fabric is stiff with starches and other nasty things. Try a piece of my hand woven cloth in your home .in tobacco gold and brown with a black ticking stripe To care for your cloth you can machine wash in cold water on delicate cycle and put in dryer . 20 inches square hemmed on two sides and labeled with my name.

For Handwoven Cotton Recycled Rag RugI received the rug from Phyllis, but the colors didn't go in my kitchen. I asked her if I could send it back and she said yes but was not happy. I sent it back right away with 2-day delivery. I never heard from her or saw a refund. I sent her an email on 2/10 asking her to let me know the status and still have not heard from her or seen a refund.
