“The lore on Army Navy cloths is widely varied depending on who you talk to. What I at one time heard from my former mother-in-law (wife of a 3-star admiral) has been substantiated by civil war diaries and such. She said the tradition began in the civil war with actual tea cloths that were sent with the officers to the field so they could have proper tea whilst awaiting the next battle. The cloths were made of alternating panels of lace and linen, bits and pieces, really, because materials were scarce and one didn’t want to send the “real” tea cloth out to be ruined by a warring regiment.”
A lovely heirloom to add to the collection! The design is a Sunflower with a Cross in the Heart polyester/cotton blend. Each block of 4 squares measures 8″x8″ and the lace edge bordering the tablecloth measures 3.25″ width, zig-zag sewn.
This festive season…Thanksgiving or Christmas or New Year…make your family gathering forever memorable and treasured…Dolores shows us how…
