Yes. I
have. But was looking for something different. However, I may just
be contacting them soon anyway to speak directly with Pat.

Have you considered Godwin Family Weavers, in Red
Lion, PA? They used to make reproduction in-grain carpets and may also
have remnants from some of their custom jobs.
(Hmmm, after a quick Google, it seems to be the Kline family
business now)
Hope this has some lead for you,

I am searching for reproduction floor coverings, a
drugget to be placed under a piano in an historic house of 1870's. The carpet is being worn under the
pedals and I would like to protect it. My first idea was to take a piece
of sturdy linen and finish off the ends lining it with a piece of polyester
felt. But then I began to
wonder if anyone knew of any quality reproductions?
