The beginning
This was a starting point for the project. While reading Laurel Thatcher Ulrich's work I was captivated by the idea that a 18Th century woman on a Maine Homestead could perform the epic list of chores and household drudgery and still have the state of mind to produce this beautiful crewel bedstead. See Museums of Old York.
