[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 478168, member: 51"]Not normally what I buy but was attracted to the modern design. This was at the sale with the thimble box. I think it is wool. Measures almost 5ft long x 22". At first I thought it was just two panels sewn together with a little spot for a dowel up top, but it is a little more complicated. Front and back are sort of a mirror image, woven independently[I] except in sections[/I]. Some of the black parts are woven together, but the orange parts woven independently. So when you reach your hand in between the fabric, it stops at some of the black sections. Hope I'm describing this correctly. My neighbor who does quilting was over and looked and thought there was a word for this. All she could think of was "double weave" but she didn't think that was the word she was trying to remember. So looking for that keyword, also general thoughts or keywords. Pics show front and back: [ATTACH=full]160982[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]160983[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]160984[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
