Title: Bedfellows Blankets Peggy Hart

URL: http://blanketweave.com/

Collection: Textile and Garment Industries Collection

Description: "The woolen mills of New England are gone, but inside a barn in rural Massachusetts there lurks a complete 1940's weave shop. Old industrial looms live their second life weaving cotton and wool blankets. Each loom is a ton and a half of greasy gears, wheels, and pulleys; mechanical innovation that made complex patterns possible. The patterns I weave are all original designs, but reflect inspiration from textile traditions around the world. Limited edition cotton throws and wool throws are available for purchase. Custom weaving is also available using a customer's own wool or commercial yarns. The minimum length for custom work is 40 yards." -- from the website, 2019.11.01

Title: Hamrick Mills

URL: http://www.hamrickmills.com/

Collection: Textile and Garment Industries Collection

Description: "In January of 1900, a new textile organization was formed in Gaffney, South Carolina under the name of Limestone Mills, with Dr. Wylie C. Hamrick elected as Secretary and Treasurer -- in effect, the chief operating officer. Already an influential figure in the community as a doctor, owner of drugstores and a dry goods store, and chair of a committee that oversaw the formation of Cherokee County in 1897, Dr. Hamrick and other investors created Limestone Mills to manufacture window shade cloth. Later renamed Hamrick Mills, the company is firmly woven into the fabric of the county, the state and the textile industry. Its hands-on family structure gives Hamrick Mills a culture that ensures integrity, flexibility, responsiveness and total commitment to customer needs." -- from the website, 2019.11.01
