- Åsa Viksten Strömbom The book is about two weaving brothers, Pehr and Zackris Persson, and their unique quilts. They lived and worked in Kubbe, a village in the Anundsjö parish in northwestern Ångermanland during the 19th century. It is told that they wove and sold various products, including the so-called 'bottentäcken' (bottom quilts). The quilts were mainly used to sew onto sheepskins. The book contains descriptions and pictures of old quilts that are preserved, among other places, at the county museum in Härnösand. There are also weaving patterns for new products for anyone who wants to weave themselves. The technique is woven with four shafts and four treadles.
