  1. Marvellous! We are fortunate that folks like yourself collect these things which are such an important link to our past. Especially in such a disposable age.

  8. Excellent. well written article on you AND this fascinating collection of yours. What do you speculate about the 'why' that this particular type of textile was popular with the Germans.? Was it what was done in their mother country? So much work for an item that, when used, gets pretty hard wear. Doubt they washed their hair as obsessively as we do today....and many of our pillow cases (my husband's really) are stained in the middle. :)
