The story being told in these panels is of a nineteenth-century weaver and his daughter, their neighbors, and their farm. It is a story of home, and the joys, sorrows, and everyday occurrences found there. If not for the home of that weaver and his daughter there would be no story to tell, and no reason to make linen panels filled with words.   <\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\" align=\"center\">&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a class=\"previous-button\" href=\"https:\/\/forbeslibrary.org\/exhibit2022\/visual-art\/mary-jones\/\">Previous<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<a class=\"next-button\" href=\"https:\/\/forbeslibrary.org\/exhibit2022\/visual-art\/scott-norris-2\/\">Next<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stories Page 1 To me, thoughts of home are closely associated with reading, and the happiness, excitement, and contentment I find in books.
