Mid 1800s homespun handwoven coverlet fabric - this piece is a full loom width, though not a bed width. (Very often these old fabrics were joined together at the selvages for wider pieces such as bed covers.) This piece is about 33" wide, 72" long unhemmed.

It's a typical sort of overshot pattern, unbleached linen with blue dyed wool and touches of faded red. It's in good shape overall though not perfect. There's some broken threads here and there, especially at the selvages. And there's some moth damage and holes to the blue wool.
