Shouldn't Peter K. Thornton's Baroque and Rococo Silks and a mention of the exhib. cat. Rococo: Art and Design in Hogarth's England be worked into the text? People like me had never heard of Anna Maria Garthwaite before that exhibition. --Wetman (talk) 15:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I have a copy of the latter & will have a look. The transition from rector's spinster daughter in York to busy textile designer in London is fascinating - how did she get into the business I wonder? Perhaps the cat will tell. Johnbod (talk) 11:06, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
It is by Natalie Rothstein again (that part), but has stuff I can add next week. Johnbod (talk) 18:02, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
