This piece of cloth raises third questions for me. Even though I have looked it up, I am not sure how this is a border cloth. Even more, I am not sure how the many hares and many tortoises here work together, except perhaps as a piece of whimsy taking off from Aesop's TH. A third question seems to be answered on the web. As I examined our cloths, I wanted to know how each level continued. Of course I thought that our pieces each came from a larger cloth that continued the story of each level. The web shows in each case exactly the piece that we have; apparently there is no larger cloth from which it is taken.
